Do I use social security benefits for my kids dad that passed away on my taxes

My kids get survival benefits from social security. Do I need to add this to file with my taxes

No.

Do not enter the SSA1099 for your child on your own tax return. Someday if the child has other income (after school job, etc.) and is filing a tax return, for that tax year he will need to include the SSA1099 on his own return. Until then, it does not get entered anywhere.
