stanley cup merican citizen. I was told by Social Security that I cannot claim a spousal benefit based on his Social Security until he begins taking his benefit. Is that true I am also the sole guardian of our adult disabled son, who has Down syndrome. I was told the same thing 鈥?that his father would have to file for his own Social Security before my son is eligible for a child benefit based on his fathers Social Security record. Is this true Phil Moeller: With apologies, Sue, your situation triggers a host of complicated Social Security claiming rules that affect millions of people, not just you.

Your eligibility for this benefit is based on you not having remarried or only having done so after age 60, being divorced for at least two years, and your ex being 62 years old or older.
