If My Friend Receives A Pension From Another Country Will Social Security Deduct It From His Survivor Benefit?

My friend is receiving SSS Survivor Benefit and if he received SSS pension from another
country will SSS deduct that from his SSS survivor benefit?

Hi,

No. Foreign pensions do not affect Social Security survivor benefits.

Best, Jerry
