Social Security Survivor Benefits?

My fiance passed away and left behind a son. My parents have custody of our son. Will he get Social Security help and if so, whose income is it based on as my parents do not work and my stepdad is on disability and get SS checks. Also she did not have an extensive work history.

Call your local Social Security Office and talk to them. They are the only ones that can give you the correct answer.

The person or persons (guardians) that have custody of your son will have to obtain information about benefits through the SS office. Since you were not married at the time of birth there will be legal information that SS will require as proof of kin but that may not be a problem.

Benefits can only come from the father and only if he paid into social security while he worked.

This is a complicated situation so please have your parents go to the SS office as soon as possible. They will need the child's fathers and your son's social security numbers as well as the official degree making them guardians of your son if they want complete information.
