Social security help How to get started
If you disagree with the evaluation of your case, it is important that you talk to a social security lawyer immediately. Q: Are there benefits to help care for a disabled wife or husband? A: Not usually. While the SSA will provide social security benefits to the spouse of a disabled person who qualifies for social security, there are strict conditions. Normally, benefits are not offered unless the caregiving spouse is responsible for the care of a dependent under 16 (or disabled) child. Other aid programs and assistance for caregivers can be obtained, though.
