Hi,

You wouldn't get both benefits in full. If your husband's Social Security benefit rate is higher than your disability benefit rate and he dies, you could then receive a partial disabled widow's benefit (DWB) in addition to your own benefit. The DWB benefit rate would be calculated at 71.5% of the difference between your full disability benefit rate and your husband's rate. However, the actual DWB amount could be limited if your husband received reduced retirement benefits.

Best, Jerry
