Social Security - Higher benefits on spouse record

[tx2024]

 On a SS form says if married, you may be eligible for higher benefits on spouses record.   WHAT does this mean? 

[kthomasusa1]

You are entitled to 50% of your spouse's SS monthly income or 100% of yours, whichever is higher.

So make sure you are getting the maximum income.

So I am entitled to 50% of my spouse's SS monthly income or 100% of mine, what if he's already drawing Social Security benefits?
