Can parents receive Social Security survivor benefits if their child dies? What then happens to that inheritance?

First, one pays into social security by working and paying social security tax. Therefore most Children (under the age of 16) have not make any contributions to the Social Security system.Then, once the child is an Adult, the survivor benefits go to the family members for whom the person who died was responsible for. That would be the dead person’s children who need support until they are adults.However, and here is where I am no expert, if a person has parents who are under the age of 62 and those parents for some reason are Dependents of their adult “child” and can be claimed as dependents on the person’s Federal Income Tax forms, then it is “possible”. But that would be a rare situation.If you have a “child” who is 30 years old, and who dies after having worked for ten years and making contributions to the social security system, the parents would get Nothing and there is No social security “inheritance”. Indeed, the social security money merely is paid in by workers and paid out to those who collect social security on an annual basis. There is no real investment portfolio that I am aware of.

Can non US citizens receive social security benefits?

It depends on many things, all of which come down to this person (you? someone else?) having a legal status in US and being a legal resident in US.No, temporary workers (on visas with expiration dates) can’t claim social security benefits: a person needs to be either a green card holder or a US citizen. Not just at the time when the pay into social security but also at the time when they want to draw the benefits: if a green card holder does not keep their status in good standing (meaning not reside outside US for more than 6 consecutive months), and then decides to file to collect social security benefits, the answer will be “No”.If a US citizen decides to live outside US and retire outside US, this person will be able to claim social security benefits.If a temporary worker (H or L visa) pays into social security, then leaves the country and decides to file for benefits (having had satisfied all other requirements such as 40 working quarters), the answer would be “No” as the person will not be a legal resident of US at the time they file for benefits.There was another question earlier on Quora - a person paid into social security while working for US based company for 36 quarters (4 quarters short of the requirement): Margaret Weiss's answer to Can a non US citizen earn 4 credits for Social security without working in USA?

Social security benefits and homeschooling?

I assume you're talking about child benefits of some kind such as SSI or Survivor Benefits. Yes, you can ABSOLUTELY keep receiving benefits while homeschooling. My father died when I was 12, and I am physically disabled (legally blind). I started homeschooling when I was 14, in 9th grade, and continued until several months after I turned 18 (my birthday was in September, so I, too, was still in school at 18 (it isn't uncommon, people, really). I was receiving survivor's benefits at the time, and before SSA would continue sending the check past my 18th birthday was if I proved that I was still "in school". This, however, did not mean in a public or private or online school. They wanted some kind of proof that I was being homeschooled. We live in Florida, and in our state, when you register to homeschool, the school board will send you a letter of acknowledgement at the beginning of every year for just such an occasion. The letter simply states that I am being homeschooled legally by my mother for the current year. We simply sent this letter to SSA, and they continued to send my SS benefits.

If you're in a state that doesn't send out letters like this, you can send some kind of letter from your homeschool co-op, a letter or transcript from an online school, or a letter and transcript from your mother. The best thing to do would be to call your local Social Security office and ask them what they would like to see from you before they continue your benefits.

How long does it take to receive social security survivor benefits?

Survivor benefits are payable for the month of death. Since their father died in October the first check was due in November for October. Now they owe you for October and November. The first check can come on any day. After that the check pay date is based on the deceased person's day of birth. 1-10 - 2nd Wed, 11-20 - 3rd Wed. and 21-31 - 4th Wed of the month. The checks are paid a month in arrears.

There is no reason why they should not have been able to process the claim the same day you were there, if they had proof of death and the birth certificate for the child. Were you married to the father? Divorced mothers are also entitled to a check and are often missed. Hopefully you filed an application for yourself as well. If there are other survivors in other households, they usually hold the claim until they get applications for everyone. This can cause a delay. On the other hand, the claim could just be sitting on someones desk getting no attention.
The squeaky wheel gets the oil if you know what I mean. Give them a call. At Christmas time they should be more diligent.

How can a mother collect social security survivor benefits for her 2 children when their father is still alive and living with the family?

First off, they wouldn’t be survivor benefits, they would be Life benefits.They are called “young mothers benefits”. For the spouse of a retired or disabled beneficiary, the spouse can collect benefits prior to age 62 if she/they have a child(ren) under age 16, or if child is over 16 AND disabled and she provides care to the disabled child. If the spouse is over 62, but not full retirement age (FRA) and has a child under age 16 or over 16 and disabled in the spouses care, she can still collect young mothers benefits. The advantage of collecting the young mothers benefits after age 62 is that those benefits would not be reduced for age. The spouse would be entitled to 50% of the Number Holders Primary Insured Amount (PIA), subject to any limits due to the Family Maximum amount
