Maximum age for survivor benefits for children

July 27, 2009 by admin

Depending on your situation, your survivor benefits will likely end soon.

A deceased worker's unmarried children who are younger than age 18 (or up to age 19 if they are attending elementary or secondary school full time) can receive survivor benefits. Children can get benefits at any age if they were disabled before age 22 and remain disabled. Under certain circumstances, benefits also can be paid to stepchildren, grandchildren or adopted children.

Moving out and receipt of survivor benefits

I didn't see any requirement that stated that a surviving parent must receive payments for the benefit of a child. If you get married, your benefits will likely cease.

I would confirm with your local office on this.
