Is A Pro-Rated Payment Made For The Month Of A Person's Death?

will a pro-rated amount of social security be paid for a person collecting when they die for the portion of the month they were living?



Hi,

No. Social Security benefits are not payable for the month in which a person dies.

Best, Jerry
