Collecting Social Security from a Deceased Family Member?!

You may have heard the stories of people who had a family member die, and they didn't tell anyone so they could keep collecting social security. You can't do this or you'll go to prison! The government has a proof of life program now after you reach a certain age. Don't cheat.

Hi! When my mother passed away, I call SS to tell them, automatically the person said you have to pay back, I said no I don’t, I have closed the bank account, SS people are so rude! Thanks!

Isnt that impossible if a person is ill or sick that means that they are not deceased it means they are ill or havent been in the same health condition as before.

So don't do this unless your parent is over 90 when he/she dies? Or did I miss the point!

That is BS. Social Security should pay you the last month you are alive. If I’m alive for one second that month or one second short of a whole month. That is my useless opinion.
