If More Than One Ex-Spouse Is Eligible For Survivor Benefits Is Their Benefit Amount Divided?
If more than one ex spouse is eligible for a surviving benefit on a decease tax payer is the benefit divided up between the beneficiaries?
Hi. No. The family maximum benefit (FMB) doesn't apply to divorced spousal and divorced survivor benefits. So, if more than one ex-spouse qualifies for surviving divorced spousal benefits they can all be paid the full amounts for which they're eligible.
Best, Jerry
