If you live in Scotland and your husband, wife or civil partner has recently died you may be eligible to receive a bereavement benefit.
The type of bereavement benefit that you may get depends on when your husband, wife or civil partner died, and whether they paid National Insurance contributions.
Any contributions you have paid do not count towards bereavement benefits that you may receive.
There are three types of bereavement benefit:
Bereavement Allowance
Widowed Parent’s Allowance
Bereavement Payment
