I recently became eligible to receive widow benefits from my 2nd husband. However, once I reach full retirement age, I would be able to receive a substantially higher amount from my still living ex-husband (married 16 years.) If I choose Widow's benefits now, can I later change to the Divorced Spouse? I've searched the official site, and have found that I can change to my own, but cannot find this answer. I will be going to the local office soon, so if yes, please let me know where to look for the information to show them if necessary.
