Think about this, if they are legally married, they can apply for benefits for their spouses.That includes dissability, retirenment, and everything else.
Our social security system is in really bad shape as it is, can you imagine having to pay additional benefits to millions of people more? (right now if the partner dies or become dissable, they can't qualify for benefits under their partner, but if they are married, they could) |
