Delaware Petition to Determine Compensation Due to Dependents of Deceased Employee is a legal document used to officially recognize a deceased employee's dependents and determine the amount of compensation they are entitled to receive. The petition is typically filed by the employee's surviving spouse, parent, or child, and may be filed in the state of Delaware's courts or with the Department of Labor. The petition must include evidence of the employee's death, the relationship between the petitioner and the deceased employee, and the amount of compensation due to the dependents. There are two types of Delaware Petition to Determine Compensation Due to Dependents of Deceased Employee: the Partial Dependency Claim and the Full Dependency Claim. A Partial Dependency Claim is filed when the deceased employee's income was partially dependent on the petitioner, while a Full Dependency Claim is filed when the deceased employee's income was fully dependent on the petitioner. Both types of claims require proof of the employee's death, the relationship between the petitioner and the deceased employee, and the amount of compensation due to the dependents.
