Maximize Your Benefits
Discover important information for your situation.
Married
If you are married, you may be able to collect up to one-half of your spouse’s Social Security benefit. This won’t affect your spouse’s checks. Ask an RSSA® for details.

Divorced
If you are divorced and 62 or older, you may qualify to receive Social Security benefits from your ex-spouse — in addition to your own Social Security payments. Ask an RSSA® for details.

Widowed
If your spouse has passed away, you may be eligible for a survivor benefit. The extra money may be essential for you. Ask an RSSA® for details.

Single
If you are single, and solely responsible for your retirement, making the optimal Social Security claiming decision is particularly important. Ask an RSSA® about your options.

Self-Employed
As a self-employed person, you may be able to decrease your payroll taxes — yet still receive the maximum income from Social Security. Ask an RSSA® for details.

Disability
Social Security can provide valuable disability benefits if you qualify, but these benefits — and how you qualify for them — are often misunderstood. Ask an RSSA® for details.

Immigrant
If you are a lawful permanent resident, but not yet a citizen, you may still qualify for Social Security benefits. Ask an RSSA® for details.

If you are looking for someone who is passionate about helping you to make the best decision on when to take social security benefits, then you need to go see Don Johnston. I attended one of his workshops last night. He is very professional, and the presentation was well put together. He took his time to make sure that all in attendance understood the information presented. He welcomed questions and answered them all. I’m a year away from becoming eligible to draw if my husband and I decide to. He has definitely given us valuable information to help us make an informed decision when it’s time. Definitely 5 stars from me! Thank you Don!
I recently had the opportunity to work with Don in reviewing our plans for Social Security. I highly recommend Don to anyone looking for help navigating the ins and outs of Social Security benefits! Don is great to work with and I found his knowledge extremely helpful in making our plans for the future.
