Divorcees may be able to claim their ex's benefits

Divorced couples are entitled to Social Security benefits if the marriage lasted at least 10 years, each ex-spouse is at least 62 years old and the person collecting the spousal benefits is single. Even if the ex-spouses are no longer in touch, the Social Security Administration can offer assistance as to whether they are eligible for spousal benefits.
