SS widow Benefits

I'm not clear on what you are asking. Are you asking if there is a maximum dollar limit for your checking or savings account in order to qualify for social security widow benefits?

If so, here's the government website page on survivor benefits.

And here is another site that helps explain what the SS government site said:

No. your deceased SS is determined by his work record. You get the survivors amount whether you make one or a million dollars a year. It is not based on YOUR income, rather it is based on his SS benefit and then the benefit for the survivor.

Now - if you are working, that could reduce the amount of your benefit if it is over the limit.

The SS Administration can answer your questions over the phone.
