what happens when we die at judgment?

1 Now even the first covenant had regulations of divine worship and the earthly sanctuary. 2 For there was a tabernacle prepared, the outer one, in which were the lampstand and the table and the sacred bread; this is called the holy place. 3 Behind the second veil there was a tabernacle which is called the Holy of Holies, 4 having a golden altar of incense and the arkof the covenant covered on all sides with gold, in which was a golden jar holding the manna,and Aaron’s rod which budded, and the tables of the covenant; 5 and above it were the cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat; but of these things we cannot now speak in detail.
6 Now when these things have been so prepared, the priests are continually entering the outer tabernacle performing the divine worship, 7 but into the second, only the high priestenters once a year, not without taking blood, which he offers for himself and for the sins of the people committed in ignorance. 8 The Holy Spirit is signifying this, that the way into the holyplace has not yet been disclosed while the outer tabernacle is still standing, 9 which is a symbol for the present time. Accordingly both gifts and sacrifices are offered which cannotmake the worshiper perfect in conscience, 10 since they relate only to food and drink and various washings, regulations for the body imposed until a time of reformation.
11 But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things to come, He entered through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this creation; 12 and not through the blood of goats and calves, but through His own blood, He entered the holy place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption. 13 For if the blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling those who have been defiled sanctify for the cleansing of the flesh, 14 how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without blemish to God, cleanse your conscience from deadworks to serve the living God?
15 For this reason He is the mediator of a new covenant, so that, since a death has takenplace for the redemption of the transgressions that were committed under the first covenant,those who have been called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance. 16 For where a covenant is, there must of necessity be the death of the one who made it. 17 For a covenant is valid only when men are dead, for it is never in force while the one who madeit lives. 18 Therefore even the first covenant was not inaugurated without blood. 19 For when every commandment had been spoken by Moses to all the people according to the Law, he took the blood of the calves and the goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people, 20 saying, “THIS IS THE BLOOD OF THE COVENANT WHICH GOD COMMANDED YOU.” 21 And in the same way he sprinkled both the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry with the blood. 22 And according to the Law,one may almost say, all things are cleansed with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.
23 Therefore it was necessary for the copies of the things in the heavens to be cleansedwith these, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these. 24 For Christdid not enter a holy place made with hands, a mere copy of the true one, but into heaven itself,now to appear in the presence of God for us; 25 nor was it that He would offer Himself often, as the high priest enters the holy place year by year with blood that is not his own. 26 Otherwise,He would have needed to suffer often since the foundation of the world; but now once at the consummation of the ages He has been manifested to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself. 27 And in as much as it is appointed for men to die once and after this comes judgment, 28 so Christ also, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time for salvation without reference to sin, to those who eagerly await Him.
- Hebrews 9​

How about “what does not happen when we die”: JUDGEMENT FOR SIN!

16 “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world might be saved through Him. 18 He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
- John 3​

what happens when 'we' die at judgment?

Hello StillGods, the lives/works of true believers will be judged by the Lord Jesus at His Bema Seat Judgment of us, and we will receive rewards from Him for the good/righteous things that we did in this life (that were in accord with His will for us).

There will apparently be some at the Bema Seat who receive little or nothing in the way of rewards however because they did little or nothing to deserve them. They will, nevertheless, be saved, since their salvation/eternal life was granted to them from the very moment that they first came to saving faith and believed .. e.g. John 5:24.

God bless you!

—David
p.s. - I took the "we" in your OP to mean "believers" (and therefore, that you wanted to know what happens to us/to believers when we die and are judged). If you are interested in knowing about the Judgment of the unbelievers at the Great White Throne instead, please let me know. Thanks

John 5
24 Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him who sent Me, 'has' eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has passed out of death into life.

There are several views of what the " second death" actually means or what it even is.
What we do know, is what it is not. It is not everlasting life, Paradise , the Kingdom of God , the Body of Christ , peace , love or anything connected to our Creator Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Anyway...sounds bad. Blessings.

The saved will be in the first resurrection (when Jesus returns) and will receive eternal life. The saved never really die ,,,, rather are in a dormant sleep in the grave util Jesus returns.

Later ... those in the 2nd resurrection will not receive eternal life and will be destroyed.

So ... it depends

The spirits of the regenerate (born again) are with Christ (Philippians 1:21-23) until the resurrection and final judgment.
The spirits of the unregenerate are in Hades until the resurrection and final judgment (Luke 16:22-24).

Now, do you mean after we die, and then at the dread day of judgement? The early church has traditionally believed that after we die, we go to what one might call Abraham’s Bosom or Heaven or alternately Hades or Sheol or Hell, depending on our likely eschatological outcome, with some churches such as the Orthodox saying those in Hades might through the intercessory prayer of the living and of the saints be delivered into an improved state before the dread day of judgement. The Roman Catholics believe in a variant of this in which those persons not definitely going to Hell instead spend a variable length of time in Purgatory. However, it is a matter of universal belief among traditional Christians that we will then be raised incorruptible to face Christ Pantocrator, who will pass judgement on all of us, with the righteous inheriting the World to Come and the wicked being consigned to the lake of fire.

Note that this refers to the world to come, not heaven. Parts of Christianity has turned this into something closer to Greek thought, with souls going to heaven. Traditional Christianity retains the idea of an embodied existence (resurrection), though with a new kind of body, in something like a renewed earth. The Revelation ends with the new Jerusalem coming down from heaven to us on a renewed earth. I wouldn’t take the image too literally, but still, it’s closer to a new form of earthly life than a disembodied heaven.
