Legal Heir doc

This query is : Resolved
Dear Sir/s, I need your advise on how to get a legal heir certificate. Sequence of happenings are
1. My father's home town (native) is Coimbatore
2. After retirement (2001), he shifted to Bangalore (where I was staying)
3. He underwent medical treatment in Bangalore in Bangalore Hospital, and he passed away in 2007.
4. We got a Death certificate from Bangalore. Coimbatore address of my father was mentioned as permanent address.
5. Later in 2007, we (along with my brother and mother) shifted to Chennai.
6. For the past 2 1/2 yrs, we are staying in Chennai.
7. We have complete address prffo in Chennai.
Now, when we approached the VAO in Coimbatore he says that since the current address proof (Ration card) has the Chennai address, I have to get the Legal Heir certificate in Chennai (from Chennai TAshildar's office)
When I approached the VAO in Chenai (Alandur), they say that I have to go to either Bangalore or Coimbatore, but after seeing the ration card proof, they are confused. They wanted to check with TAmbaram for the correctness.
I need your advice on who would actually give the certificate.
Secondly, would a Legal heir certificate duly notarised bny a notary public be sufficient for carrying out the phone / bank / land transfers in Coimbatore..
Please help.
Thanks, V Rajagopalan

LHC issued by the revenue authorities is the valid one for all transactions.
Just apply with an Indemnity bond, to the Chennai authorities. All the legal heirs can join together and mention the facts by way of this 'Indemnity Bond' (duly notarised).

Legal Heir certificate issued by the revenue authority is not valid it is survivors certificate, Civil court has got power to legal heir certificate.

I do agree with Rajeev. In your case, you require Survivorship Certificate and not legal Heir Certificate. Contact Civil Court at Chennai.
