Social Security guidelines varies by state. Usually it depends on your income and your ability to work, not by your assets, you'd need to talk to a case worker from Social Security office in your state, or Google your states eligibility guidelines for qualification.

Social Security is not means tested.  You can own a dozen houses and still collect.  It is a NATIONAL program, not a state one.  Now, if you are discussing Social Security disability payments, they are means tested.

Yes, if you both earned enough credits to qualify for Social Security, then you can each collect your own benefits. To qualify for Social Security retirement benefits, you must have earned 40 credits (approximately 10 years of work). You can actually collect your own benefit as early as age 62, but you won't receive your full benefit until you reach your full retirement age. Once you are at your full retirement age, you can choose to collect either your own benefit, or the spousal benefit, whichever is higher.
