From my deceased ex-husband, I've received $1289 monthly for ~3 years from his regular SS benefit. I was 69 in June, still working part time, and plan to retire @ age 70 June 2018 as the MRD kicks-in. My SS benefit should be ~$3100. Assume his $1289 will cease, right, or wrong? Thanks.

Hi,

Right. You'll only be able to receive the higher of your own benefit rate or your survivor rate.

Best, Jerry
