Can a surviving spouse receive both the uniformed service SBP annuity and a civil service/FERS SBP annuity?
Yes, provided the uniformed services member did not waive military retried pay for a combined civil service annuity.Question 9. My military spouse died several weeks ago. As a retired officer since 1973, my spouse had been receiving a monthly retirement check. Will I continue to receive this, will it be totally discontinued or what? Answer: Your spouses military retired pay stops as of the date of death. You will receive monthly survivor payments from the DFAS if your spouse elected an annuity for you under the SBP.
