It may seem strange to. you
that a widow with Mary's re
sponsibilities would no,t check up
on:hep rights to social." security
benefits' sootier than "8 months
after her bereavement. But the
social security people can tell
you that this is an old story.
Many young widowed m'others
delay in applying for social se
curity survivors benefits. .When
there is such a delay, the law
provides ; that .benefits, ban be
paid retroactively for no more
than 12 months before the time
Before the end of a year fol
lowing their husband's deaths,
most widow! have been forced to
carefully assess their sources of
i incb'me' and do learn' about their
rights to social security benefits.
But (n the, meantime, they have
suffered, acute anxiety about the
future and may even have dis
rupted their living arrangements
unnecessarily. ;
Mrs.' W. and her children are
receiving; the maximum family
payment of $200 a month because
Mr. W.'g earnings were ' high.
Payments JO a fatherless family
range from $45 io $200 a month,
dependirig upon the father's av
eraee e&rnincrs. under social se
curity and the number of .eligi
ble dependents. The average
monthly paymenfc to" a ' widow
with two children is about $140
