This form is a sample letter in Word format covering the subject matter of the title of the form.
Start the letter with your introduction and the reason for writing the letter. Moreover, request the bank manager to settle the deceased account. Additionally, you have to provide details like account numbers and other documents. Signature – Use “Faithfully” or “Sincerely” as signatures and then mention your name.
The bank is likely to ask for two forms of your identification (usually a passport or driver's licence, or a proof of address with a utility bill) and a copy of the will. If there's no will, the bank could ask for evidence of your relationship to the deceased. You'll also need the death certificate.
The next of kin affidavit describes the family members' relationships to the decedent and confirms who the heirs are of the deceased's estate. It is especially needed when there is no will to declare legal heirs.
The next of kin must notify their banks of the death when an account holder dies. This is usually done by delivering a certified copy of the death certificate to the bank, along with the deceased's name and Social Security number, bank account numbers, and other information.
The bank needs to be notified of the accountholder's passing as soon as possible, as any bank accounts of the deceased remain active until the bank is notified of the death. This typically entails providing the original Death Certificate for verification purposes and the Will, if one is available.
