Banks have a very well defined procedure to be followed to settle death claims received from the legal heirs of account holder and/or locker holder. As per the procedure, the Legal Heirs have to necessarily submit: 1. Death Certificate 2. Succession Certificate 3. Claim form from all the persons mentioned in the succession certificate 4. Declarations from two persons known to the bank. Without these basic documents, claim settlement does not happen in Banks. Banks may seek further documents also to ensure that the claim is properly settled. In case, the deceased Depositor/Locker Holder had given a nomination, the amount shall be paid and/or locker contents shall be allowed to be removed by such Nominee, provided there are no counter claims from other Legal Heirs. Therefore, in the instant case, please verify with the Bank Officials whether there is a Nomination in favour of anybody and if so whether the Nominee claimed. Have a dialogue with the Bank Officials, collect the required formats in that bank and submit them as per their procedure.
