Is It Correct That The Reduction For Spousal Benefits Is Based On When The Spouse Becomes Eligible For Those Benefits?
In response to a question asked by Sandra you said "Eight years later, Molly's husband files for his benefits with a PIA of $2,400. Molly's spousal benefit would then be $200, or 50% of her husband's PIA minus Molly's own PIA (i.e. $2,400 / 2 – $1,000), which would be unreduced since Molly has already reached FRA when she becomes eligible for spousal benefits."
