Can my canadian wife receive social security benefits from the USA

she has never lived there so has no social security card, I am a US citizen and have been living in Canada since 1998 and have been married to her since 1999

I would like to know that as well. Can a widow of a us citizen with social security benefits receive money if not a us citizen and non resident of USA.

You must either be a U.S. citizen or LPR to receive benefits.  It is addressed on SSA's website.
