Well, you file on behalf of your dad, but his ESTATE gets the check, so his EXECUTOR would have to apply it against his debts or final expenses, then it would be distributed according to the will or the judge.

look up the social security administration and give them a call..you should try to have his social security number on hand if possible.

The death benefit is payable only if his wife is alive, and then only to her.
The funeral director handles the paperwork.
