How can the child of a deceased mother cash her last disability check made payable to the mother. The bank won't cash it and the Disability agent won't reissue it in the child's name? The child has power of attorney.

Re: Disability Check
You cannot cash the check. You can either become the Personal Representative of the estate or cash it using a Small Estate's Affidavit. You can obtain forms from the Denver Probate Court:

You should make sure the estate or you are entitled to the check. If not, you should return the check.
