My wife passed I 2016,we were both on ssdi am I entitled to any if her benefits ?
Hi,
I'm sorry for your loss.
The only way that you'd potentially be eligible for survivor benefits from your wife's account is if her full Social Security disability SSDI rate was higher than your SSDI rate. You'd also need to be at least age 50 to be able to qualify for disabled widower's benefits (https://www.ssa.gov/OP_Home/handbook/handbook.04/handbook-0401.html).
Best, Jerry
