Your Family May Be Eligible for Social Security Benefits After your death, your family may be entitled to Social Security survivor benefits. Eligible family members will receive monthly payments -- as much as the full retirement amount that would have been paid to you.
What benefits can widows and widowers receive from Social Security? Widows and widowers are entitled to receive survivors benefits from Social Security if their spouse worked long enough paying Social Security payroll taxes to qualify. The amount of time the deceased spouse must have worked depends on age at death. But no one needs to have earned more than 40 Social Security credits -- 10 years of work for most people -- for a surviving spouse to claim widowers or widows benefits. In cases involving minor children, working just a year and a half out of the most recent three years can be enough to guarantee benefits for a surviving spouse caring for those children.
