the death pension
This is a financial aid to guarantee income to the spouse after the taxpayer's death. Thus, to be entitled to receipt, the insured person should be up to date with the INSS or receiving some other social security benefit.

The answer to that question will depend on the age of the deceased partner. Since the benefit can even be lifetime. Check out the rules below:
- Under 21 years: 3 years;
- 21 and 26 years: 6 years;
- 27 and 29 years: 10 years;
- 30 and 40 years: 15 years;
- 41 and 43 years: 20 years;
- From 44 years old: Lifetime.
Therefore, with changes in legislation, it is possible that the spouse remarries or has a stable union and do not lose the right to a death pension under the General Social Security System (RGPS).
