Social Security spousal benefit question
It's not clear what tool you are using. https://opensocialsecurity.com/ doesn't predict your PIA - that's something you provide as input.
Or try a website like this. https://opensocialsecurity.com/ For optimal claiming strategy.

Mostly clueless on our path toward Financial Independence (or less dependence)
Given that your earnings are very close, it likely makes sense for the slightly higher earning spouse to delay until Age 70 while the slightly lower earning spouse claims at Age 62 (technically 62 and 1 month).

My father turns 65 next month. Should he take SS or work 3 more years to earn more benefits?
Dad would be smart to experiment with https://opensocialsecurity.com/ before making a claiming decision. It wouldn't be surprising if he should delay starting his benefits until 70.

The plain text accounting options are by far the best if you're willing to give up automatic pretty navigation and graphing.

Please tell me the fastest way to analyze the expenses from bank statemẹnts and catẹgorise them accordingly
I use ledger (https://plaintextaccounting.org/) to manage my transactions in plain text and then generate reports. I copy/paste the transactions from pdfs received monthly in an Emacs Org file and then convert them to ledger format using ob-lc (https://github.com/jayrajput/ob-ledger-convert). There is a steep learning curve, but the results are awesome.

Are there any Perfios users here? The Perfios Finance Manager (PFM) is shutting down on 1-August-2023
I had tried few apps in the past (Walnut, Mint etc), but I was reluctant to share my bank credentials, sms access etc. At some point, I came across plain text accounting concept and never looked back. There is a big learning curve in the beginning, but in the long run, I think it is essential to understand the basics of accounting. Since it's just a command line tool, it's hard to visualize the data. So I built a UI layer on top of the ledger command line tool called paisa.

An open-source alternative to QuickBooks
There's also Plain Text Accounting[1]. The biggest problem of all open source solutions, accountants' experience aside, is the lack of banking and taxes integration, especially outside of US, e.g. for Asian, South American, or African businesses. The most promising FOSS solution for SME I was able to find is Akaunting[2][3].
What are some alternatives?
hledger-mode - An Emacs major mode for Hledger
actual - A local-first personal finance app
ynab-to-ledger - A tool to convert a YNAB-exported CSV file to a plaintext accounting ledger dat file
emanote - Emanate a structured view of your plain-text notes
reckon - Flexibly import bank account CSV files into Ledger for command-line accounting
hledger - Robust, fast, intuitive plain text accounting tool with CLI, TUI and web interfaces.
wire-server - 🇪🇺 Wire back-end services
ledger - Double-entry accounting system with a command-line reporting interface
application - Buckets Desktop Application
python-fints - Pure-python FinTS (formerly known as HBCI) implementation
beancount - Beancount: Double-Entry Accounting from Text Files.
