      How am I supposed to prove I am dead if I am dead? 🤔

      Just send them a photo of you dead. Make sure to label it “This is me, dead”.

      Or send them your dead body.

        Or send them your dead body.

        They ask for three copies of your dead body, proof of residence, and a state-issued ID.

        As far as I know dead people don’t receive a death certificate

              If you call the bank to cancel the account of a dead person, are they asking for your death certificate or the death certificate of the person that died?

                Well it’s the dead guys death cert, but since the dead guy is dead he can’t prove anything. Lol I’m just fucking around.

                  Me too actually. I searched it up before commenting and the wording didn’t disprove me immediately, so I ran with it.

                  Now I’m curious and will have to research it…lol

      I feel like all it would be would be giving the account via your will, then having that transferred through an attorney, who has a copy of/access to your death certificate.
