Social Security Question

Have a married couple his DOB is 7/4/53 and hers is 1/16/53. So he is not FRA for social security. Can she file now since she is 66 and get half of what he would get in 6 months. She has never worked outside the home . Does this hurt his benefit at all by her starting today…



Per the changes made in April, 2016, she cannot file for spousal benefits until H begins benefits. If H were to file and suspend his benefit, her benefit would also be suspended.
