Entitlement to a higher DIB does not cause the termination of WIB.
-
•
If DIB continues to FRA, it will be converted to a RIB at the DIB rate.
-
•
If the DIB terminates before FRA and the widow(er) becomes entitled to RIB, the RIB
is reduced as explained in RS 00615.160 without consideration of the DIB entitlement.
