There is no such thing as "social security child support." If the child's parent(s) is eligible for Social Security, the child is probably eligible, also. In such a case, the child's benefit is considered child support. If that benefit exceeds the amount ordered for child support, the obligor does not owe any additional payment.

It is easy to call the social security office. Apply first for your benefits, then call them to add your spouse. You will need to have both of you there, on the phone, or in person, to answer their questions.
