Interesting. My dad died Nov 1 and they took his Dec check paid the first of the month in December. They didn't take the November check (SS pays one month behind).
I thought it was kind of wild as well. But to the bigger point, when SSA receives notice of death, they stop the benefits immediately. And as they should. That’s how the system *should* work.
And also - my condolences on your dad. Losing a loved one is so tough.
