Only Social Security can tell you if that was the case. Give your local Social Security office a call and ask if your children are eligible for any benefits on their deceased father's Social Security earning's record. Good luck Eileen!

Encourage your dad to contact SSA to find out why the benefits were stopped. There should have been some communication, usually a letter, before any action was taken. The letter would describe the reason and the appeal rights. If your father no longer has this, SSA should be able to provide a copy, or at least say what has happened. Keep in mind that time limits apply to any appeals. So, it important to take action quickly. Your dad may also want to contact a lawyer in his area to get legal advice. I cannot offer to help you.

My dad is 58 years old and me and my sister are 15 & 12. They just cut off our social security without telling us! We have bills to pay. We usually only have $120-140 dollors left for grocery's and gas. Can you help me? Hi, um about this. My dad is 58 years old and me and my sister are 15 & 12.

I cannot answer that. You need to contact SSA to see what they say.  Based on what you describe, whether the father died “fully insured” may be an issue. I cannot answer that.
