- Your kids may be able to get survivor benefits too. The children of deceased workers may be able to collect survivor benefits of up to 75 percent of what their late parent was getting (or would have been entitled to get) from Social Security. About 2.1 million children were doing so as of February 2025.

Social Security can pay benefits to a deceased recipient's former spouse. Read more to see if you qualify for ex-spouse survivor benefits.
