All surviving family members must fill out a Small Estate Affidavit when the primary and contingent beneficiaries are deceased.  Or, if the primary beneficiary is deceased and there is not named beneficiary on a life insurance policy.  Some insurance companies have their own particular Small Estate Affidavits.  Others will accept a “form”. The affidavit must be signed, dated and notarized.

These insurance assignment situations can get confusing and the insurance companies take a very close look at assignments where named beneficiaries are deceased.  Be careful and make sure you have an experienced funeral funding company quarterbacking your insurance assignments.

Assignment Funding

Assignment funding is a simple process where a 3d party like Trinity funds the cost of your funeral services through an assignment of proceeds from an insurance policy. Here’s how it works. A one page insurance assignment is completed by the beneficiary and the Funeral Director, a claim form provided by either the insurance company or Trinity and a death certificate. There are times where a funeral bill is needed as well. Trinity Funeral Funding will let you know what is needed for each claim. Once these documents are completed the policy is verified (normally within a day or two), funds are wired to your funeral home. The payments from the insurance company are then sent to Trinity and any additional proceeds are sent directly to the beneficiary.
