Kevin 0 Posted November 28, 2018 Hi Devin, I am 62 years old, have a disabled son living at home and contemplating early retirement. My spouse works part-time but also takes care of my son at home when not working. I am currently working full time from home so I also take care of him as well, between us we share the duties 24/7/365. If I were to retire early would my son and spouse be eligible for benefits? Thanks, Kevin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Devin Carroll 1 Posted November 30, 2018 If your son's disability occurred before age 22 he should be eligible for a benefit when you file. As long as your spouse does not earn in excess of the earnings limit, she should also be eligible for an unreduced spousal benefit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
