Question: Spousal Benefit and WEP/GPO
« on: January 23, 2025, 12:13:11 PM »
Situation:
My spouse (USC, 70) receives $940/mo in social security
I  (UKC) will recieve £700/mo UK OAP - this is from voluntary contributions - I have only worked 6 months in the UK in my life. I have no other pensions - only investments.

I understand that I should get 50% of my spouse's SS based on her record. AFAIK this will not be subject to WEP.

Question: Is it subject to GPO?

No.

GPO and WEP are now eliminated
Dual USC/UKC living in the UK since May 2016
