Full question: After I turn 67 FRA can I claim my spousal support who passed away on August 9, 2023?

Hi there,

Yes, after you reach your Full Retirement Age (FRA) of 67, you can claim survivor benefits based on your late spouse’s record. Survivor benefits do not increase past the surviving spouse’s FRA, so it would be a suitable time to claim them to receive the maximum benefit amount.

For personalized support, you can work with an RSSA here.

Warmly,
Martha
