Social Security Survivors Insurance federal funding in Texas
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.
Texas’s statewide book besides 96.004
Texas federal spending covers every CFDA coded to the state. Texas programs is the catalog directory, including SSDI. $22,499,924,073 is one cell, not an “all Social Security” total.
Place-of-performance Texas on a survivors-insurance vehicle can be a payment center. It is not automatically the ZIP where a survivor lives. This packet has no county split of the $22,499,924,073.
Obligations versus checks already mailed
An obligation is a recorded commitment. An outlay is a payment. $22,499,924,073 is the commitment figure. This page does not convert the 16,861 awards into deposits.
State budget documents are different ledgers. Keep the citation on USAspending.gov.
How to cite the 96.004–Texas join
Cite: Social Security Survivors Insurance (CFDA 96.004) obligated $22,499,924,073 on 16,861 awards coded to Texas, per USAspending.gov. Keep both keys. Do not invent a fiscal year. All spending ties stores this pair with other program-by-state pages.
Later bulk files can move the dollars and the 16,861-award count. Prefer the overlay Social Security Survivors Insurance in Texas when the live table and this snapshot diverge.
High row counts, nearby SSDI counts, and what still is not a crosswalk
Texas SSDI in this slice shows 16,923 awards; this survivors cell shows 16,861. Matching-ish counts are not matching rows. This extract does not publish a recipient crosswalk. Treating the two counts as the same vehicles would invent a finding.
This page will not treat 16,861 awards as 16,861 surviving families. It will not compute a per-beneficiary figure because the packet has no beneficiary census. It will not rank Texas against California or Florida on 96.004.
SSDI, retirement insurance, Medicaid, VA compensation, and disaster grants remain outside $22,499,924,073. Texas federal spending, Texas programs, CFDA 96.004, and All spending ties are the parent hubs. The mean of about $1.33 million per record is a quotient, not a typical monthly check. Keep both keys in every citation sentence. If a later ingest disagrees, the overlay wins.
SSA survivors benefits cover several family categories. This packet does not split them. Inferring a count of widows or of children from 16,861 awards would be a category error. $22,499,924,073 remains an obligation cell on CFDA 96.004 with Texas place-of-performance.
A payment center tagged to Texas can dominate the book even if survivors live elsewhere. That possibility is why place-of-performance is a coding field, not a residence map. Social Security Survivors Insurance in Texas remains the live overlay if later ingests move the dollars.
Do not add SSDI or retirement insurance to this survivors total even though those Texas SSA joins also appear in this slice. Keep $22,499,924,073 on 96.004. Keep USAspending.gov as the cited source. Keep the obligation label. Texas federal spending, Texas programs, CFDA 96.004, and All spending ties remain the parent directory. Award rows are not families.
Questions
- How much Social Security Survivors Insurance is obligated in Texas?
- USAspending.gov records $22,499,924,073 in CFDA 96.004 obligations across 16,861 awards coded to Texas. That is a program × state join, not an outlay and not Texas’s full federal total.
- Is 16,861 a count of Texas survivors?
- No. It is an award-row count. $22,499,924,073 ÷ 16,861 is about $1.33 million per record as a mean, not a typical monthly check. Beneficiary statistics live in other SSA publications.
- Are these the same awards as Texas SSDI?

- 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.
