Can My Wife Get Railroad Benefits From My Record And Her Social Security?
Can my wife,who does not nor ever has worked for the railroad collect her social security along with my railroad pension ?
Hi,
Your wife could potentially receive both Social Security (SS) retirement benefits and Railroad (RR) spousal benefits, but her Tier 1 RR benefit would be offset by the amount of her SS benefit (https://www.rrb.gov/forms/opa/ib2/ib2_ann_components.asp).
