v, according to Social Security Administration, the recipient
has to live the entire month to be entitled to the money. Or at
least that's what I have encountered doing estates. So, if Eve
died before the end of the month, even on the last day of the
month, the money has to be returned to Uncle Sugar. This has
only happened once or twice and each time, I've checked with SSA
to be absolutely sure.

thought about the federal charges as per the bank.
