If I Get Remarried Would I Lose Any Of My Monthly Income?

Im a 69 year old widow receiving my husbands SSI as he passed away 2 years ago.If i remarried would i lose any amount monthly that i get.Im also receiving teamsters two.Thank you

Hi,

I'm sorry for your loss.

I'm assuming by SSI you're referring to Social Security widow's benefits, not Supplemental Security Income. Your Social Security widow's benefits would not be affected by a remarriage, since you are over age 60. My only area of expertise is Social Security, so I can't tell you whether or not a remarriage would affect your other pensions.

Best, Jerry
