Expert Advice When You Need It Most
Survivor benefits for childrenI have a son and daughter whoes father passed away. I filed for survivor benefits but they were denied because he did not have enough credits or points. He did work while serving time in a federal institution. I never mentioned that to the SS rep that tried to explain why they are not eligible. Does that count? Wasn't money withheld from those wages?

If money was withheld, that would have shown up on the Social Security records, so it was already there and he still did not have enough credits to qualify. You can double check if you want, but the computers usually have a listing showing EVERY place he ever worked and the exact deductions that were taken out. keith345@hotmail.com (Accountant)
