Are you currently receiving any disability benefits?
Yeah, i started to receive it recently.
Well, in that case, i can tell you that some members of your family may also qualify to get benefits on your record.
That sounds good. Say, do you know how much could be the total amount perceived?
That depend on the factor of how many family members get qualified on your record, aside from the amount of your benefit. For that reason, final amount can vary, but mostly it reaches between 150 to 180 percent of your disability benefit.
Oh, that sounds great, really sweet. do you know an estimate of how much each family member could receive?
In that regard, each member can get, if qualify, up to 50 percent of your disability benefit. Of course, in this cases as in many others, there is a limit which we cannot cross and so your family receive certain up to certain amount.
Um, it makes sense, of course. Look, what about if my spouse was on Social Security too?
Are you spouse about to get retirement?
Yeah, my spouse is waiting for that.
Perfect. In that case, your spouse will receive its amount first. However, if your spouse benefit on your record is higher, then your spouse may receive a mix of benefits that would equal the higher amount.
Ok, ok. i'll keep that in mind. Now, i'm in a second marriage, so my ex-wife could receive some benefit too?
