If the account has a payable on death beneficiary, the bank account balance goes to the beneficiary after the last account owner dies. A beneficiary can claim bank account funds by contacting the bank and providing a death certificate.
The bank will likely require you to visit a branch in person with the death certificate and proof of your identity. If you're the named beneficiary, the bank should facilitate the transfer of funds directly to you. However, if there is no beneficiary listed, the account may need to go through probate.
To open an estate bank account, the fiduciary will need the EIN, certified letters testamentary (or letters of administration), and a certified copy of the death certificate. Some bank institutions will accept a regular copy of the death certificate.
