notify-everyone-of-a-death

0upvotes

Work through who and what has to be notified after someone dies — the people, agencies, banks, and accounts — in a sane order, so nothing critical is missed while grieving. Use when asked who do I need to notify when someone dies, what to do after a death checklist, or how do I handle my parent's accounts after they died. Produces an ordered notification checklist (immediate people, then government/SSA, then financial, then subscriptions/digital), what each notification needs (death certificates, account numbers), how many death certificates to order, what to stop vs. transfer vs. close, and the scams that target the newly bereaved. Not legal or financial advice.

# Notify Everyone of a Death

After a death, an administrative avalanche lands exactly when there's no capacity for it — dozens of people, agencies, and accounts to notify, each with its own requirements. This turns it into a calm sequence: who and what to notify in what order, what each one needs, how many death certificates to order, and the scams that prey on the grieving — so nothing critical slips while you grieve.

## What This Skill Produces

- **An ordered notification checklist** — immediate circle first, then government (SSA, and where relevant benefits/tax agencies), then financial (banks, insurers, pensions), then subscriptions and digital accounts
- **What each notification needs** — death certificates, account numbers, relationship proof — so calls aren't repeated
- **A death-certificate count** — a realistic number of certified copies to order up front (many institutions want an original)
- **Stop vs. transfer vs. close** — for each account type, what actually should happen (stop benefits that will claw back, transfer a joint account, close a card)
- **A scam warning** — the identity theft and fraud that target the recently deceased and their families, and how to reduce it
- **A "not now" list** — what genuinely can wait weeks, so the first days aren't spent on the non-urgent
