Washington, DC - Ask Rusty - Deemed Filing & 50% of Spouse's Benefit
Dear Rusty: I would like to know more about spousal benefits allowing a husband or wife to receive up to 50 percent of a spouse's Social Security benefits. I believe it is called spousal deeming of Social Security benefits, and I'm wondering if this is something we can take advantage of.
