What does the Surviving Spouse virtual chapter offer? Take a look at the Surviving Spouse Corner. Understandably, when someone becomes a surviving spouse, there is a certain knowledge gap to navigate. Surviving spouses of MOAA work to help close that gap. Along with this support and articles which directly affect your benefits, there are articles in the Archive that can help in planning the rest of your life.

You are a Survivor!
The Checklist

It's not easy being a survivor. Sometimes, what is needed is checklist that gets you through the first week or so after the passing of your loved one.

This checklist was developed by a military spouse, who went through the process of "reinventing the wheel". Had she had what she is now sharing with us all, her life, the lives of her children, and the lives of her close friends would not have had the pressure of "uncertainty" added to their grief.

To notify distant friends created during your service, please consider posting a notice in the TAPS section of MOAA's award winning magazine.
