Social Security Survivors Insurance (CFDA 96.004) shows $22,499,924,073 in USAspending.gov obligations coded to Texas, across 16,861 awards. This page joins that SSA catalog program to Texas place-of-performance. It is not a count of surviving spouses or children, not a Trust Fund statement, and not an outlay conversion. The award count sits close to Texas’s SSDI row count in this slice; that proximity is not treated here as a crosswalk. USAspending.gov is the source. Later ingests can move both the dollars and the 16,861-award count.
Key figures
- CFDA 96.004 × Texas records $22,499,924,073 in USAspending obligations.
- 16,861 awards underlie that sum; the mean is about $1.33 million per record, not a typical check.
- Matching survivors insurance to Texas is not causation and not a family census.
- Cite obligations from USAspending.gov, not outlays.
Survivors insurance meeting Texas in the award file
CFDA 96.004 is Social Security Survivors Insurance. Texas (TX) is the geography tag. Together they produce $22,499,924,073 and 16,861 records. A 96.004 award tagged to Oklahoma or New Mexico is excluded. A Texas SSDI, retirement-insurance, Medicaid, VA, or disaster-grant row is a different CFDA. This page does not add those programs to the survivors cell.
Sixteen thousand eight hundred sixty-one awards against $22,499,924,073 yields a mean of about $1,334,436 per record. That mean is not a typical monthly survivors check. This packet does not list beneficiaries or family types.
Austin did not cause $22,499,924,073 by appearing as a state code. Correlation is not causation. Social Security Survivors Insurance in Texas is the live overlay.
What CFDA 96.004 reports without becoming a family census
SpendingVault does not grade Texas’s survivors-benefit processing. $22,499,924,073 is an obligation sum, not a caseload of widows, widowers, or children. CFDA 96.004 is the national hub without the Texas filter. This packet has no national survivors-insurance total, so none is quoted.
SSA statistical supplements are a different series. They are not the 16,861 USAspending.gov awards. Mixing a beneficiary count from those files with this join would invent a per-person figure the packet does not support.

- Where is the live overlay?
- Social Security Survivors Insurance in Texas is the overlay. See Texas federal spending, Texas programs, CFDA 96.004, and All spending ties. Later ingests override this snapshot.
