My Mother died just over a year ago. My Father has survived her. My sister(the only girl in family) has been helping my father w/things like social security and finances... i.e. medical bills and such. Recently, my father had told me the he receives no survivors benefits from social security. Is that possible in the state of n.j.. My mother had worked most her life. I am wrong thinking he should get a benefit for losing spouse? Seems messed up that he also has to pay for medical insurance even after medicare.
