Possibly. Under certain circumstances, a non-citizen US resident may be eligible for survivors' benefits if he or she is the widow(er) of someone who qualified to receive benefits, or may be entitled to collect for work completed in Another Country, if that country has a reciprocal treaty with the US.

In order to qualify, you must be a legal alien and must have a Social Security card.

For more information, you can contact the Social Security Administration at 1-800-772-1213 Monday through Friday between the hours of 7:00 am and 7:00 pm EST.
