My father passed away in July 2005. He had his Social Security insurance automatically deposited into his account. Do I have a right to know what happened to that money? How would I go about finding out?
The executor of the estate should know what assets were available, and where they went. Social Security payments would have stopped effective the month your father passed away, July 2005, so the last deposit he would have had the rights to would have been for June 2005, received in July. If the deposits continued because Social Security wasn't aware of your father passing, they would still go back to the bank and reclaim the money from July and any months thereafter.
