Q. My wife is receiving a state pension plus Social Security. I have a CSRS pension. If I were to die, will she be able to collect the 55 percent survivor benefits with no penalty along with her Social Security and state pension?
A. Yes, she will.

I was told by social security that I would not be able to collect all three. My husbands survivor annuity, my pension and my social security.
Unless there is something unusual about your situation, the answer you got from the Social Security Administration is wrong.
I’m a SC State employee retired after 33 years of service retired on 9/30/2017 at the age of 57 do I qualify to get the special retirement supplement?
Because this is a site for federal employees and retirees, we aren’t able to answer your question. You’ll have to check with your state’s personnel office.
Should they take Ny state tax from the survivor benefit I get from my husband,who worked for usps.
