Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in California
examples of next-of-kin proof documents
My dad just recently passed away
overseas, and I need to prove that
I'm next-of-kin in order to process his
death certificate. What are some of
the examples of next-of-kin proof
documents? We don't have a will nor
birth certificate. (We're U.S. citizens,
but I was born overseas, and I think
my parents have lost my birth
certificate already.) Will Social
Security agency have the info. to
prove our father-daughter
relationship? Or is there any other
government agency keep this kind of
record where I can access?
