One of our young employees lost her life suddenly this week and left a 28-year-old spouse. He's entitled to a very tiny (<$10) monthly lifetime survivor pension that starts on October 1. Or he can choose (or perhaps it's mandatory - still being studied) a rather small lump sum settlement.

If he gets the lump sum, will he be able to roll it over into his IRA?

Yes.

If a life insurance policy is involved, and PS58 taxable amounts were recognized, you should be clear about the pre-tax and after-tax portions of the death benefit.

No life insurance involved. I presume you concur with previous YES response.
