On the Your Money, Your Wealth® podcast episode #208, Joe Anderson, CFP® and “Big Al” Clopine, CPA answer this question from Tom: “My wife turns 62 in Feb of 2019. I turn 70 in July. I have been drawing SSI since 62, as it was necessary. We were wiped out in the housing crash of 2017-ish, so no saving or other income. My wife could take her SSI at about $700 per month, or I hear she could apply for half my $1990 that I receive. Question; Do I lose half my SSI if she claims half? Given the scenario above, should she take her SSI? Thank you.” Listen to the full podcast and read the transcript and show notes:
