Survivor's Pension: Everything You Need to Know

The survivor's pension is a fundamental economic benefit that INPS provides to the surviving family members of a deceased pensioner. This support tool proves essential to ensure economic continuity for relatives facing the loss of a primary source of income.

Who is Entitled to the Survivor's Pension?

The survivor's pension is primarily granted to the surviving spouse, even if separated or divorced, as long as they have not remarried. In addition, children may benefit from it, provided they are minors, students, or unable to work. In the absence of a spouse and children, the right may extend to parents and, as a last resort, to siblings, if they also meet certain conditions.


Required Documentation

To apply for the survivor's pension, it is essential to present the following documentation to INPS:

  • Death certificate of the pensioner.
  • ID document and tax code of the applicant.
  • Civil status certificate and, if necessary, a copy of the separation or divorce decree.

Additional documents may be requested depending on the specifics of the case.
