What Kind Of Child Support Services Do I Qualify For

My name is Andrea Eddy. I have a three year old daughter Roxanne Jones. I recently became unemployed, and on June 17 2009 her father Mathew Jacob Jones, committed suicide. I was wondering what kind of benefits are available for her as I was getting a divorce at the time of his death and he never paid any child support for her. I never attempted to collect child support because I did not know where he was for over 2 years. But I would like to know if there are any benefits available to my daughter because of the situation. Thank you

Sorry about your loss
by: Child Support America Team Member

Dear Andrea,

We are sorry about your loss. Your daughter is entitled to Social Security Disability due to her father's death. You can actually apply for Social Security for your daughter. If you and your husband were still legally married at the time of his death then you can apply for it as well. Contact your local SSA office and ask to be mailed the proper forms. Was your divorce legally final before his death?
