If a husband takes Social Security benefits at age 62, his spouse may be eligible for spousal benefits, which can be up to 50% of the husband's benefit amount at his full retirement age. However, if the spouse also claims benefits at age 62, the amount will be reduced based on their age at the time of claiming. It's important for the spouse to consider their own work history and benefits, as they may receive a larger amount based on their own earnings. Consulting with the Social Security Administration can provide personalized estimates and guidance.
