Question My spouse passed @ age 67 08/07/2018 I was 7 days short of turning 60yrs SS used the 60 yr age My claim was “lost” in the system for approx one year My verbal appeals to the amount of funds they were being deposited was exactly (which were exactly 285 less than my late spouses “retirement “ amount) I finally found my claim sitting in the local office It had NOT gone through processing Supervisor at local office shared with me that “I” was” declared disabled” by the State of CA Long story short, I’ve been appealing verbally, written, supervisor appointment calls etc I never get the letters I am inquiring about I NEVER received letter of disability approval from the DDS office and I never received the breakdown/amount of funds I should receive My late spouse only had 5 days with me prior his to passing, to give me instructions One was “ make sure SS calculates your income based on my disability, not retirement because it’s going to be reduced by age I am currently (while calling SS every month), receiving survivor’s benefits Per my late spouses and his “in person’ visit with SS, I should be receiving his reduced disability , not his reduced retirement I stayed home with the children so my work history is not strongWe were married for 40 years and I meet ALL of the Disabled widow criteria The supervisor at the local office faxed me a copy of all the topics we spoke of, including that I was found disabled by the State He did not, however answer the questions as to why I didn’t receive the letters from DDS and as far as my claim not being sent through processing, his reply was: “we didn’t know what to do with it ! Please help me understand this Thank you in advance I know this is long Thank you from all of us looking for answers from SSA

I'm 55 years old and permanently disabled since 2016, I was married for 15 months and he passed on December 20th Looks like I'm on my way to social security

Not true on you start your widows benefits at age 60 or 65 If you were married and your husband died at age 39 n you were in your 30s you can get widows benefits 13 and up can get widows benefits if you were married at them ages
Comment from : @evelynroyston3882

What if the spouse passed away at age 56, before he started earning an SS benefit? Is there a benefit still there and available to be claimed when the surviving spouse turns 60?

You can get survivor benefits but cant live on that and only allowed to make 21000 in additionyou cant live alone on that money as a widowits a pitance I cant work less as a nurse and still live so ill work until i die

This is a benefit only if you were married for 9 months I was only married 117 days

I'm 59 I was planning on collecting my widow benefit at 60 My concern is I think I make waaaay to much money since I've gone back to working as a nurse I'm making more money now than we did most of the time when we both were working Should I go ahead and collect what they will give me?

I was living with the man for 3 years and intended to get married but didn't work out! Can I still qualify for widowed benefits? The state is Colorado
Comment from : @marybowman3303

Does the 1 dollar penalty they take for every 2 dollars u go over 21K Does it permanently lower ur window benefits permanently till my FRA 67 and 10 months?
Comment from : @marlenebueler64

Although I am 60 and a widower, my income is significant enough that I wouldn't get much However, when I retire at 61, I might give it another thought, but I don't think it would be much
