Social Security and death. Now what?

Tom Margenau answers a variety of important questions as they pertain to Social Security and the death of a loved one in this brief Q and A article.  It’s the issue of dealing with that last Social Security check that befuddles folks.  Margeneau notes, “You have to start out by understanding two rules. Rule No. 1: Social Security benefits are always paid after the month is over.  In other words, the check you get in February is the Social Security payment for January.  And Rule No. 2: Social Security benefits are never prorated.  So, you have to be alive every day of a month in order to be due a Social Security benefit for that month.”  Read full piece here.
