Yes A one-time payment of $ 255 can be paid to the surviving spouse if he or she lived with the deceased; or, if you lived separately, you were receiving certain Social Security benefits on the deceased's record.
and if there is no surviving spouse?
in this case payment is made to a child who is eligible for benefits in the registry of the deceased in the month of death
Anyway, what documents would i need to apply?
Well, required documentation would depend on the benefit you will be applying, for example, Widows / Widower or surviving divorced spouse's benefits or child's benefits.
Are you in possession of all documentation?
Yeah, i've been collecting those for a while.
