Q: If I pass away while I am in the Social Security Disability application process, where does my claim go? A: According to the Social Security Administration, if a person who may be eligible for social security benefits dies (this includes Supplemental Security Income), their survivors may apply for a Lump Sum Death Payment. This means that, if you were to die in the process of applying for social security benefits, your survivors may make a case for the social security benefits you may have earned after the waiting period. In order to receive the lump sum payment, your survivors must prove that you would have qualified for social security disability in the month of death. Lump Sum Death Payment of social security benefits is available only to particular surviving family members.
