Details
You may be able to get Bereavement Support Payment (BSP) if your husband, wife or civil partner died in the last 21 months.
You can also apply by phone.
If you’re in Northern Ireland there is a different process to apply by phone or post.
If your partner died more than 21 months ago
You may still be able to claim BSP if your husband, wife or civil partner’s cause of death was confirmed more than 21 months after the death. Call the Bereavement Service helpline.
If your husband, wife or civil partner died before 6 April 2017, you may be able to get Widowed Parent’s Allowance instead.
