Full question: My wife passed away in February and her Social Security check was sent to her bank and then taken back. She passed away after her birthday in February had to file a 1724 to get payment its been over 60 days now how long should it take for payment?

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out.

I’m sorry to hear about your wife’s passing. The processing time for Form SSA-1724 can vary, but if it’s been over 60 days, I would recommend following up with the Social Security Administration directly to inquire about the status of the payment. They will be able to provide you with the most current information and any next steps if necessary.

All the best,
Martha and team
