Confused about Social Security? This session will go beyond the basics of retirement benefits to explore often-overlooked filing strategies, including options for spouses and divorced spouses. You’ll learn:

Key factors in deciding the best time to file
How to work and collect benefits at the same time
How your filing decision can affect widow(er) benefits
Step-by-step guidance on how and when to apply

We know navigating government programs can feel overwhelming, but Social Security offers resources, online tools, and personal guidance that make the process easier than you might expect. Join us to get your questions answered and walk away with the confidence to make informed decisions about your benefits.
