Social Security Information from the WSJ

Ex-Spouses and Social Security Benefits -
To review, here are the general requirements for collecting retirement benefits based on an ex-spouse's earnings: Your marriage had to have lasted at least 10 years; you can't be remarried; you have to be at least 62; and your ex-spouse has to be entitled to Social Security retirement or disability benefits. If you haven't yet reached your full retirement age, you would receive a percentage of the benefit you would be entitled to get at that date.
