5. Ex-Spousal Benefits

You may be entitled to ex-spousal benefits if you divorced after at least ten years of marriage. Your benefits are based on your former partner’s earnings as long as you remain unmarried. However, if you remarry, you are no longer entitled to receive those benefits. If you qualify for this benefit, it doesn’t affect the amount your ex-partner receives.
