Yes, it does. A one-time payment of $255 can be paid to the surviving spouse if he or she was living with the deceased; or, if living apart, was receiving certain Social Security benefits on the deceased's record.
Is there a surviving spouse?
No, I wasn't talking about an actual case. I've just been curious about that.
Unfortunately, no relevant information is found.
So, who can receive benefits then?
Certain family members may be eligible to receive monthly benefits, for example a widow or widower age 60 or older, age 50 or older if disabled. Or a surviving divorced spouse.
I'd like to ask you another question about applying for benefits.
If applying for disability benefits on a deceased worker s record , they can speed up the application process if they complete an Adult Disability Report and have it available at the time of their appointment. What if my spouse and I are no longer married?
No we are merely separated.
