Does Line R on a Social Security application concern disability?
"Line R" is part of a come-on used to promote Steve Sjuggerud's TrueWealth investment advisory; you won't find a specific reference to this anywhere else, unless the person is talking about Steve Sjuggerud's investment program.Line R refers to "File and Suspend," filing for Social Security retirement benefits and immediately telling the Social Security Administration to suspend the claim. This allows a spouse to receive retirement benefits while the person who filed the claim continues working.This particular "secret" only applies to married couples, and only if one spouse is full retirement age (65, if born before 1943; 66 if born between 1943-1954) and plans to continue working beyond retirement age. It provides the most advantage to a family where one spouse doesn't work, or only works part-time and earns $14,160 per year or less, and the other spouse works full-time until age 70.The non-earning (or low-earning) husband or wife can retire as early as age 62 and draw social security benefits against the working spouse's earnings record, if the working spouse is at least full retirement age. Minor children, if any, are also eligible to receive benefits.In order for this to work, the 65/66-year-old worker must file for Social Security retirement then suspend the claim (on Line R) and continue working in to earn credits toward higher future benefits (these max out at age 70). Under these circumstances, the family will receive social security payments for the non-working spouse, but nothing for the working spouse until he or she re-files for retirement a few years later.Contrary to popular belief, this is not really a "secret the government doesn't want you to know," but the bi-product of too many regulations and loopholes and too much documentation for most people to keep track of.You can learn other tips about maximizing your Social Security benefits and minimizing your taxes by reading free articles from credible sources.

The best place to find your answer is directly from the Social Security website (http://www.ssa.gov/) or by contacting your area office with the question.

Do I have a claim under the California Community Property Law if my late husband intended for his Retirement Insurance to go to me but his daughters are the named beneficiaries?
If by "retirement insurance" you mean a qualified retirement account covered by ERISA, then the retirement account had to provide that the surviving spouse is the beneficiary, unless the surviving spouse consented to a different designation (such as to the daughters). So the claim is not under community property law, but rather federal ERISA law. I'm not sure about California in particular, but in at least one community property state, you might have a claim for fraud against the community if your husband caused community assets to pass to someone other than you. It would be a difficult claim, though, because an exception to the fraud on the community claim is a "natural" disposition of the property. And it is natural for a father to leave assets to his children.
