Question

Ok I’m trying to figure out when I add my dependents to include my wife and kids how this works. I’m told if I include them they get half what I make but split in three ways. But since my wife works part time she makes over the 17k limit so much rather she would get nothing but the other two have the reduced split amount.  But I have the option to just have my kids listed on my benefits and not my wife and they would receive 420 instead of 280 since it’s only spilt between my 1 and 3 year old? Why if my wife helps take care of my children does she even have a limit to her income? He said he didn’t know anything about spousal benefits but to call my local SSA office.... am I missing something?
