All legitimate debts of a deceased person are payable out of the deceased person's estate before heirs or other beneficiaries receive the inheritance. Therefore, yes, you may be required to pay your husband's debts out of the pension. Seek the advice of an experienced attorney in estate planning.

Does the first or second wife get pention when the husband dies?

The entitlement to a pension after a husband's death typically depends on the pension plan's rules and the laws in the jurisdiction. In many cases, only the legally recognized spouse at the time of death is eligible for survivor benefits. If the husband was legally married to the second wife at the time of his death and had not designated the first wife as a beneficiary, the second wife would usually receive the pension benefits. However, specific circumstances and legal considerations can vary, so it is advisable to consult the pension plan details and legal guidance.


Can a forgotten pension plan be paid to ex spouse after divorce?

In my case, the pension plan was started in January and my husband divorced his first wife in May of the same year. I happened upon this pension plan after my husband's death. I thought for sure the ex-wife would get it. However, there was wording that asked who he lived with for the 12 months preceding his death. In this case, it was me, the widowed wife. Therefore I am entitled to these benefits.

Your husband's pension is a benefit that was provided by the AMO Union. This benefit stipulated that his pension would be available to him at the age of retirement, which would in this case be 65. Because you are the bearer of his estate you get all accumulation from that when it would normally be provided to him.

Not until the veteran dies. The pension is the property of the veteran, NOT their spouse. While the veteran is alive, the spouse would not have any monetary claim on the veterans pension unless they divorced. Only then would she be able to make a claim on a percentage of his pension payment.


How can a ex-wife receive a divorced spouse's pension when they divorced she said she would get her pension and he keep his pension?

In many cases, a divorced spouse may still be entitled to a portion of the other spouse's pension, regardless of any verbal agreements made during the divorce. This typically requires a qualified domestic relations order (QDRO), which legally recognizes the ex-spouse's right to receive a share of the pension benefits. If the ex-wife explicitly agreed to forgo her claim to the ex-husband's pension in the divorce settlement, it would depend on the legal language of the divorce decree and any state laws governing such agreements. It's advisable for her to consult a legal expert to explore her options based on her specific circumstances.
