If you have been separated for over 30 years but never divorced is your ex entitled to your Social Security benefits when you pass?

[Edit]

Answer

If you divorce, most definitely not.

Answer

Yes, he is eligible for your benefits if you pass away before he does BUT it applies the other way around too! You live longer, you get his SS benefits. I don't know about you but I've heard women live LONGER than men! The jokes on him!
