What happens to social security; VA benefits when spouse is deceased?

Do the adult children of the deceased person who received SSI and VA benefits recieve the parents benefits after the parent dies when the spouse is predeceased? Or do the benefits just stop?What happens to social security; VA benefits when spouse is deceased?
Assuming the veteran was your father... if his wife is already passed and all his children are over 18, then the benefits just stop. You do have to let both those agencies know that he has passed on. If you don't then they would continue to deposit money until they figured it out, and then once they figured it out they would want all that money back at once - and I'm betting they won't make it easy on you, either.What happens to social security; VA benefits when spouse is deceased?
No, adult children don't receive anything, they just stop. A surviving spouse, or minor children, might receive benefits.
if it is a disabled adult child they will and if there is a surviving widow they will receive widows pension
