FAQ

After receiving notification of an account holder's death, a bank will take prompt steps to secure the assets. For an account owned by a single individual, this typically includes: Account status review: The bank reviews the account to confirm its ownership status and determine whether it has a beneficiary designation.

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 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.

Who typically notifies the bank when an account holder dies? Family members or next of kin generally notify the bank when a client passes. It can also be someone who was appointed by a court to handle the deceased's financial affairs. There are also times when the bank learns of a client's passing through probate.

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.

To obtain a bank confirmation letter from your bank you may request in-person at a bank branch from one of the bankers, by a phone call to the bank, and depending on the financial institution, through their online platform.
