My dad just passed away 2 months ago and my mother applied for his SSI. They were still married for over 40 years but separated for 20; not divorced. She was turned down for his SSI. What should she do? or What should she have to write in her appeal letter?

I am sorry for your loss.

I would urge you have your mother contact the local bar association for help getting a lawyer that specializes in social security benefits.

Good luck
