Can the other spouse collect spousal benefits from social security after the first spouse goes from spousal benefits to their own full benefit?

Yes, the other spouse can still collect spousal benefits from Social Security even after the first spouse switches from spousal benefits to their own full benefit. However, the amount they receive will depend on their own work history and eligibility. If the other spouse is entitled to a higher benefit based on their own earnings, they may choose to take that instead. It's important to consult with the Social Security Administration for specific circumstances and calculations.
