Re: benefits for surving spouse

Accounting matters are non-disability issues. Attorneys practicing in this area concentrate on disability matters.

Moreover, you do not say whether you are receiving retirement, disability or both. You do not state your ages. These calculations are something that the case workers at your local office do every day. Call or make an appointment at your local office. The local office should be listed in your phone book or check the internet >> www.ssa.gov
