Social Security rules and regulations, and legislation, vary according to the area in which you live and use these services.
You will need to contact your local Social Security office to learn how you will be affected financially by your husband's death and also by other changes which might affect your allowances in some way.
You don't need to give personal detals about yourself to the officer with whom you speak and can, of course, withold your caller ID. Making an enquiry anonymously won't affect in any way the advice you'll be given, but do be aware you must be absolutely honest when giving detals about your situation: if you don't tell the exact truth the advice you receive is worthless.

If a railroad worker had worked under Social Security before becoming a Railroad worker can they also receive Social Security benefits?
They can but that person's Railroad Retirement is going to be reduced. Here is a link to the Railroad Retirement Board's website that explains all the details about Railroad Retirement and Social Security Benefits. The tier I portion of a railroad retirement annuity is based on both railroad retirement and nonrailroad social security credits acquired by an employee and reflects what social security would pay if railroad work were covered by social security. Tier I benefits are, therefore, reduced by the amount of any actual social security benefit paid on the basis of nonrailroad employment, in order to prevent a duplication of benefits based on the same earnings. .
