Rule Changes Expand Social Security Benefits for Children
The children of deceased women workers may receive Social Security payments on their mother's account, not just the father's, due to a new definition of dependency. Benefits can continue monthly to age 22 if in school and unmarried, and must be applied for. Contact the Social Security Administration at 3000 West Harris in San Angelo or the local representative.
