If I no longer get survivor benefits for a child under 16 by choice, and my daughter is 15, will it now go to her?

You need to make an appointment with social security. Bring proper documentation including the fathers death certificate and your daughters birth certificate with the fathers name on it, or other proof that he was the father. B
Truthfully, the only person who can answer this is the social worker at SSI. You'll need to take in all your paperwork to them and have them verify your claim.
Nobody here works for SSI and the information you'll receive is from the website that we check. If you want your daughter to have the benefits, it will be necessary to go to the office after the first of the year and find out how you can do this.
Here is the number to call. You better ask them directly. 1-800-772-1213.
