Cooked fiddleheads are done when they have lost their crunchiness, but not become soggy. This is al dente cooking. Served with real butter, and salt, some people also like to add a little cider vinegar. Their subtle flavor interpolates between sweet, mild asparagus and an un-bitter version of cooked baby spinach.
Survivors Benefits for Children. Children under the age of 18, or up to 19 if going to elementary or secondary school full time, can get survivors benefits based on the deceased parentâs earnings history. If the child became disabled before he or she was 22, benefits are available for the child regardless of age. In addition to the biological child of the deceased worker, an adopted child, stepchild, grandchild, and even step-grandchild may be eligible for the child's benefit. The child must be unmarried.
Calculate 75 percent of the worker's full-retirement age benefit if you are a child under the age of 18, or 19 if you are still in high school. Disabled children may also qualify for survivor benefits at 75 percent of the deceased worker's full-retirement-age benefit. Contact Social Security if there are several recipients who qualify for benefits based on one deceased worker's history. Social Security imposes a maximum benefit available that equals 150 to 180 percent of the full retirement age benefit.
