To a widower who received a survivors’ pension as a widower with a child, but the child no longer meets the definition of child under National Insurance Law. The widower's entitlement to a survivors’ pension will be examined on the basis of his income:
If his income is high – he will lose his eligibility for a survivor's pension and receive a survivors grant. Even if, in the future, his
income decreased, he would no longer be entitled to a survivor's
pension.
If his income is low –
he will continue to receive a survivors grant.
If his income increased in the future, his income increased, he would lose his eligibility for a survivors pension and receive a survivors grant.
If his income decreased in the future, his eligibility for a survivors pension would be renewed, and the grant paid to him deducted at 100% from the survivors grant due to him.
