My wife started her benefits at age 63 after they changed the rules in 2015. I turn 66 this July 2017. I want to file for spousal benefits to receive half her benefit and not take mine until I reach age 70. Can I do this?
Hi,
Yes. You are still permitted to do this because you were born prior to January 2 1954 (https://www.ssa.gov/planners/retire/deemedfaq.html).
Best, Jerry
