Dear Roberta:
You have the facts correct, but it is not exactly how it goes. Your sister can file for Disabled Widows but I think her prescribed period is over. She would have had to be entitled to her first husbands benefits within 7 years. By what you are saying, it has been longer than that. She would have to file for her own disability. She could, however, file for regular widows benefits at age 60. Her disabled older child has nothing to do with the benefits she is now applying for.........Carol
