My husband passed away Nov. 27th 2010 he receives a pension from GM Motor Co. and a canadian government check from the government. How long do I have to contact them about his death? He was not a US citizen but I am. I did spend Dec. monies but not sure if I should spend Jan. monies. What would your advice be?
