My dad passed away in September of this year. I am a disabled adult. I was approved for survivor benefits. Will I get back pay survivor benefits for September, October, and November? I haven't received any payment yet?

Yes you should either get benefits from the date that you applied for them or from the date of his death. I don't remember which one it is. My mama passed away and my step-dad got survivor benefits. He also was given a one time check because she passed away. I don't remember what they called it though.
Who approved your application? Did your Dad take care of you before he died?
You will have to ask your questions with whomever approved you for benefits or Social Security office (in person).
