S6E5: Child in Care Spousal Benefit: What’s That?
Hosted By Dr. Gerry Arango / Provided By Networks for Training and Development, Inc.
Geralyn is joined by her husband, Michael Deely, to explore a little-known Social Security provision called the Child-in-Care Spousal Benefit. Using a fictional family case study, they break down who may qualify, how the benefit works alongside Disabled Adult Child (DAC) benefits, and why the Social Security “deeming rule” matters. They also discuss earnings limits, Medicare, retirement planning, and the questions families may want to ask as they consider whether this benefit could be part of their own financial planning.
