Survivor annuity

0

Q. My husband has been on workers’ compensation (previous air traffic controller) since 1980. If he should die before me, will I receive any monthly benefits?

A. Assuming that he didn’t ask for a refund of this retirement contributions, you’d receive a survivor annuity. If he took a refund, you wouldn’t be entitled to any annuity.
