How Much Am I Supposed To Receive?
My wife passed away in 2001 and just started collecting spouse benefits I am 62 and wondering how much am I supposed to receive
Hi,
I'm sorry for your loss.
If you were born in 1958 and you claimed widower benefits starting with the month you reached age 62, your benefit amount would be paid at a rate of 80.5% of your wife's primary insurance amount (PIA).
Best, Jerry
