We are pleased to offer assistance in the collection of Social Security Benefits. Rest assured that we will guide you through the entire process of working to gain any benefits that may be available.

The information below may help you better understand what types of information we may need and provide answers to some common questions.

Eligibility

A one-time payment of $255 is paid in addition to the monthly cash benefits described above. The lump-sum death payment (LSDP) is paid in the following priority order:

  • A surviving spouse who lived in the same household as the deceased person at the time of death
  • A surviving spouse eligible for or entitled to benefits for the month of death
  • A child or children eligible for or entitled to benefits for the month of death

We hope this information was helpful to you. As part of our services to you at the time of death, we will notify the Social Security Administration of the death and connect you with the local office.
