Enter how many entitled people there are in each group. The spouse group counts the spouse or partner of more than 2 years and ex-spouses receiving alimony; descendants count up to age 18 (25 if studying, 27 in a master's, no limit with a disability). Ascendants only count when there is no spouse and no descendants.
| Grant total (3 × IAS) | €1,611.39 |
| Spouse group (half or in full) | €805.70 |
| Descendants group (half or in full) | €805.69 |
Rule applied: both groups exist, so half goes to the spouse/ex-spouses and half to the descendants, in equal shares within each group (Decree-Law 322/90). Per-person figures are rounded to the cent.
The grant must be claimed within 180 days of the death. Funeral expenses paid by a non-entitled person may be deducted (€1,611.39 is the total before deductions).
Estimate for the general Social Security regime. Out of scope, and explained in the article: the detailed eligibility of each recipient (marriage duration, proof of the de facto union, descendants' age limits), deductions of expenses and unduly received pensions, the rural regime (1.5 × IAS minimum), the public-sector CGA regime and the survivor's pension (a separate monthly benefit).
Educational estimate, not advice. Social Security decides the award and the exact amounts; per-person figures are rounded to the cent. Always confirm with Social Security.
