My husband had cancer. We were married 5 months before he died. He was getting SS. I quit my job, I had medical problems. But also quit also to take care of my husband. His income was all we had. He died January 1-23-2020. I believe he had covid at the time he died. But no one cared to check him because he had cancer. I filed for disability January 2020. It took me 2 and a haf years to get disability. I applied for ssi but was denied. Why cant I get survivors benefits?
I didn't have any money, my husband Ss was all we had. I was found in full favor to my disability. But was paid ss mostly? I don't understand why? I was awarded SSI and disability
question, my wife passed in 2017,she was on ssdi.we were married 17 years,i applied in june 2021 for ssdi,waiting my decision. can i collect my wife benefit while i wait on my decision?
@notmeee7302 thank u,i just got approved last month for ssdi,i didnt collect wife benefit while waiting,but heard i can switch to the higher of the 2 benefit,mine or hers,she made more than me,
Does the surviving spouse have to be 70 to receive the full amount with full delayed retirement credits that her spouse was receiving since he filed at 70 years old? If the surviving spouse was only a healthy 55 years old, does she have to wait until 70 to get the full amount with full delayed retirement credits?
GOOD MORNING MAM , HOWN I CN CLAIM THE SURVIVAL BENEFITS OF MY HUSBAND DIED HERE IN PHIIPNES?UNTIL NOW I DIDNT YET RECIEVE ANY AMOUNT MY HUSBAND NOW DIED 1 MONTH NOW THANK U FOR ANSWERING
You are entitled to the higher of your amount and an amount based on his earnings, but not both. Since he died 18 years ago, I’m guessing he was not receiving SS, so the rules are different for you based on whether he was collecting or not started collecting. You simply apply for SS benefits based on your account, and let SSA know you were married but he died 18 years ago. They will calculate which is higher, your account or “spousal survivorship”. This video is for still married, and divorced from the ex spouse.
I started disability benefits at 55 (amputee) have the Wep applied and owe overpayment $5,000 I only get $80.per month. My divorced wife which I was married over 10 years passed at 57 while on disability benefit. Can I use her benefits and switch back and forth at highest amount?
Disability is a special case. These instructional videos are for customary Social Security and cannot cover the complexities of SSDI. SSDI may have the words Social Security, but it is not funded at any amount needed to pay benefits and is considered welfare.
i was receiving the social security assurvival benefits from may 18 to march 2022. bit it was stopped because i was not a resident of the usa. and resideing outside usa. however before it was approved by sss i told them my status but i became eligible because i worked i usa for five years. i wrote a letter asking sss to return such benefit but this office did not respond to me anymore
If you were receiving SS spouse survivor, it means your spouse was eligible for SS (paid in 10 years or more), and he is now dead. I do not believe your residency matters, and your benefits is governed by your dead spouse’s eligibility. If he was you were married when he was receiving SS, you can claim at age 60 71.5% of his FRA amount.
I don't look forward to losing my husband and visa versa. It still is good to know for ourselves and friends what the facts are.vthank you
My husband passed at age 46 SS gave me and our twin boys. This was in 80's
