It should be on his death certificate. Get his drivers license or passport so you have some means of identification. Take this to the Social Security office and ask for their assistance. Michael Hartmann FindYourPolicy.com

No. Any of his checks you receive after his death may not be cashed and must be returned to the government. However, if you are disabled, or unmarried and under the age of 18 (19 if you are a full-time primary or secondary student), then you may be eligible for what are called "Survivors' Benefits".

You need to contact the Social Security office as soon as possible to find out if you and/or any other family members are eligible to receive monthly benefits. A surviving spouse who is age 60 or who is caring for the deceased's minor child or disabled child is one family member that could qualify.

I looked up the contact information for you. Rather than speculate, contact Social Security and get the answers to your specific questions.

if a person is on social security and wins lots of money is their social security cut off?

No, winning money would not automatically lead to the cutoff of Social Security benefits. However, there are income and asset limits that may affect the Social Security benefits a person receives. If the winnings, plus any other income or assets, exceed these limits, it could result in a reduction or loss of Social Security benefits. It is advised to consult with the Social Security Administration for specific details.
