When a bereavement
occurs, most people do not know what they have to do. At T.
Allen Funeral Service, we will
inform you about registering the death, which must
be done by the next of kin, executor or someone who was present
when the death took place.
Registration must take place
within 5 working days, and families are given a Disposal
certificate that must be given to the funeral director. This
certificate is not given to the family if the coroner is
involved.
Death certificates are
charged for and it is worth getting extra copies for banks,
insurance, etc. You will also be given a form for the
Department of Social Security to alter/stop any pensions or
benefits.
