Eligibility for Social Security Survivor Benefits?

My 3 child have received benefits. My daughter, youngest of 3, recently turned 18. I realize the SS benefits extend to her high school education.

My husband passed away in 2005. As the wife, can I submit for benefits now or do I wait until I retire or do I not never receive benefits?

Call your local Social Security Office and talk to them. That is the place to get correct advice.

If possible, make a trip to your local SS office as it is so much nicer to talk to someone in person. You can call the SS office and obtain a lot of general information about when you can draw benefits (usually depends on your age) but individual information can usually only be obtained in person at their office.

You can find out when you will be eligible to draw personal benefits and also if it will more beneficial to draw from your husband's account or your own (if you worked).
