Go to the ssa.gov web site for a definitive answer on this. The issues are all there about whether you can claim a higher SSI amount based upon a husband. I do not know how if at all this would apply to ex husbands who have remarried for example. Whether you supported one or ten kids alone would not matter...as injust as that might seem.
