after my kids surviors benifits started, the worker had me come in and told me they had other benifits, but I needed to get their fathers death certificate. well I did that and its been several years since I've heard anything.how do I find out about this? I questioned this one time and she said it could take a long time. Also I had aplied in 2001 , got the last paper I needed to get in before the case was no longer opened, which it had already been at the least 1 1/2 to 2 years , the lady told me there was nothing on the computer showing I ever applied. I've been alittle suspious about the whole thing. I know it would be in the computer some where. How could I go about checking into that?
