Losing a loved one is a horrible experience and grief can be compounded by the uncertainty of what needs to be done to ensure the loved one’s estate gets dealt with appropriately, particularly in the first few months after the death. Get more info:https://www.albertawillsonline.com/

1. When a Loved One Dies: First Important Step

3. Likely the first item you need to do is to obtain a death certificate. Any
joint assets or assets with specified beneficiary designations attached will
require a death certificate in order to remove the deceased’s name from
title. You will need to obtain the certificate in the jurisdiction where the
death took place. In Alberta, you can go to www.servicealberta.gov.ab.ca
and complete the Application for Ordering Death and Legal Change of
Name Documents.
This then needs to be dropped off to a registry agent with a government
issued form of id. Outside of Alberta, you need to complete the Registry
Connect Application for Certificate/Documents and then see a Notary
Public to complete the Statutory Declaration of Proof of Identity part of
that Application. Your completed application is to be mailed to Registry
Connect at Suite 202, 1003 Ellwood Road, SW Edmonton, AB T6X 0B3.

4. Many of the programs run by the government need to be notified within a certain time frame of the
date of death. While the estate is entitled to Old Age Security (OAS) and Canada Pension Plan (CPP)
payments for the month of death, Service Canada needs each to be cancelled within 30 days to avoid a
clawback[1].
You can cancel OAS and CPP by contacting Service Canada with the full name, date of birth, date of
death, social insurance number, previous address and name and address of the person responsible for
handling the deceased’s affairs (if known) at any Service Canada office or it can be done by mail.
If the death occurred in Canada you do not need to prove the date of death, but if the death occurred
outside of Canada you will need proof of death such as: official death certificate issued under the
authority of government where the death occurred, death certificate issued by a court, funeral home or
medical practitioner, or a statement by a doctor last in attendance with appropriate identifying
letterhead.

5. When a person dies,
employment insurance (EI)
benefits payable to that person
up to and including the date of
death may be paid to the
estate. However, these benefits
must also be cancelled by
completing a Request for
Payment of Benefit on Behalf of
a Deceased Person found at
http://www.servicecanada.gc.c
a/cgi-
bin/search/eforms/index.cgi?ap
p=prfl&frm=ins2882&ln=eng.

6. Any EI benefits paid after the death must be repaid. It should also be noted
that an estate can apply for EI benefits on behalf of a deceased person,
particularly if that deceased person had not been able to work in the weeks
leading to his or her death.
For most other CRA notifications, such as GST, Canada Child Tax Benefit,
etc. you can complete an Information Sheet RC4111 and send it to your tax
services office or tax centre. RC4111 is found at http://www.cra-
arc.gc.ca/E/pub/tg/rc4111/README.html. CRA will also require a certified
copy of the death certificate. If the deceased was resident in Vancouver the
documents should be sent to 9755 King George Boulevard, Surrey BC V3T
5E1 and if the deceased was resident in Calgary, the documents should be
sent to 220 4th Avenue SE, Calgary, AB T2G 0L1. For all other cities, the
addresses can be found at http://www.cra.arc.gc.ca/cntct/tso-bsf-eng.html
