Florida. My brother died from liver failure in September. He applied for disability benefits but didn't become eligible until after his death. The money that is available is substantial since it includes back payments for over two years. He did have an estranged wife (not sure if they were ever divorced) and they hadn't been in contact for over 18 years. He has no surviving children. Can my mother collect the benefits due my brother? He died while living in Texas - she resides in Florida. Thank you for any information.What is the name of your state?
