Read More »Planning for Your Survivors As you plan for the future, you'll want to think about what your family would need if you should die. Social Security can help your family if you have earned enough Social Security credits through your work. You can earn up to 4 credits each year. In 2023, for example, you earn 1 credit for each $1,640 of wages or self-employment income. When you have earned $6,560 you have earned your 4 credits for the year. The number of credits needed to provide benefits for your survivors depends on your age when you die. No one needs more than 40 credits (10 years of work) to be eligible for any Social Security benefit. But, the younger a person is, the fewer credits they must have for family members to receive survivors benefits. Some survivors can get benefits if you have credit for 1 and 1/2 years of work (6 credits) in the 3 years just before your death. For Your Surviving Spouse There are about 4 million surviving spouses receiving monthly Social Security benefits based on their deceased spouse's earnings record. For many of those survivors, those benefits help to provide the necessities of life. Surviving spouses can receive: Reduced benefits as early as age 60. If surviving spouses qualify for retirement benefits on their own record, they can switch to their own retirement benefit as early as age 62. Benefits as early as age 50 if they have a disability AND their disability started before or within 7 years of your death. If a surviving spouse who is caring for your children receives Social Security benefits, they're still eligible for benefits. This applies if their disability starts before those benefits end or within 7 years after they end. Benefits at any age, if they have not remarried, and if they take care of your child who is under age 16 or who has a disability and receives child’s benefits. If a surviving spouse remarries after they reach age 60 (age 50 if they have a disability), the remarriage will not affect their eligibility for survivors benefits. 1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778) to request an appointment. Surviving spouses and surviving divorced spouses cannot apply online for survivors benefits. They should contact us at(TTY) to request an appointment. 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. We use the same definition of disability for surviving spouses as we do for workers. For Your Surviving Divorced Spouse If you have a surviving divorced spouse, they could get the same benefits as your surviving spouse if that marriage lasted 10 years or more. If your surviving divorced spouse qualifies for retirement benefits on their own record, they can switch to their own retirement benefit as early as age 62. Benefits paid to a surviving divorced spouse won't affect the benefit amounts your other survivors will receive based on your earnings record. If your surviving divorced spouse remarries after they reach age 60 (age 50 if they have a disability), the remarriage will not affect their eligibility for survivors benefits. If your surviving divorced spouse is caring for your child who is under age 16 who has a disability and gets benefits on your record, they will not have to meet the length-of-marriage rule. The child must be your natural or legally adopted child. However, if they qualify for benefits as a surviving divorced mother or father who is caring for your child, their benefits may affect the amount of benefits your other survivors will receive. This amount is based on your earnings record.

Read More »For Your Children Your unmarried children who are under 18 (up to age 19 if attending elementary or secondary school full time) can be eligible to receive Social Security benefits when you die. Your child can also get benefits at any age if they have a disability that began before age 22. Under certain circumstances, your stepchildren, grandchildren, step grandchildren or adopted children may receive benefits. For further information, read our publication Survivors Benefits. For Your Parents You must already provide at least half of your parent’s support. Your parent must not be eligible to receive a retirement benefit that is higher than the benefit we could pay on your record. Generally, your parent also must not marry after your death. However, there are some exceptions. In addition to your natural parent, your stepparent or adoptive parent may receive benefits if they became your parent before you were age 16.
