So sorry for your loss. No, in general the SS is paid for the previous month at the beginning of THIS month. So, let us say, as in the case of my brother, a check came into his account on the 8th May and he had died on the 7th. The SS did not take that money back as it was really for April. But if they mistakenly post another check they will take it away. And as a for instance, he was alive part of May, but there was nothing in June. They don't pay for the month you die in. Just reassure yourself, if they want it they will snatch it right back all on their own.
My mother passed away on October 31, 2020. She could not keep the money for October. Even though she paid her bills with the money in October, Social Security reversed it and took it right out of her account for October. I never even called social security, they took the money back all by themselves! The pension my mother got on October 1st she was able to keep for the month of October.
My husband died on Sept. 14th 2020, and I was told by the Social Security office, that he would not receive his check for Sept. but that I would start my widows benefits in Sept., which I did. I received my first widows benefit check before the end of Sept. Make sure you call the Social Security office to apply for those benefits. Oh, and yes you will still receive a check in January as it actually for December.
I am sorry for your loss. My heart goes out to you. May God bless and comfort you in the days and weeks ahead.
I am sorry for your loss. the answer to your question is Yes. He (you actually) get to keep the social security check received this month (January) because it is for December. If he gets another check in February, it will have to be returned to social security since he did not live the entire month of January.
I think the confusion here is "Does he still get his SS for January"
As said the check he gets in January is for December. Just like a job, u get paid after u do the work. Because he passed in January you will not get a February check. You will need to call SS to adjust your SS to reflect his.
My dad died in late November (the 21st), was paid for that month, and the check was deposited in December but was yanked back out almost immediately. As the bank had already been notified of his death, they wouldn't even allow access to those funds because they knew they'd be yanked back. Within a couple of days, though, the adjusted amount was deposited for my mother.
If Dad died in November he should be entitled to the check he received in December because its actually November's SS. Now January, he would not receive anything because he was not alive in December. There maybe something about the time of the month he died. The earlier part of the month verses the later psrt of the month. SS has been known to "take back" when they shouldn't have. I would call the SS office and question it. If they were wrong, they will redeposit and then it becomes part of the estate.
Maybe I should call social security to get my mothers money out back into her estate? She got paid October 3rd snd she died October 31st. She never got paid for November. They immediately took her money back from October 3rd payment. Is her estate due the money back?
SocIal Security checks are made as payment for the previous month. He / She must survive the entire month in order to receive that check. For example, if a person was to die on December 24th the payment made in January must be returned and no further payments are to be received. Sorry for your loss.
Ok, I looked up my moms checking account. She did keep October 3rd social security which was for September. Social security deposited money into her account NOVEMBER 3rd but then took it back out again November 3rd which would have been for October. So we’re good.
