Dear Sir/Ma'am,
Greetings! I would like to make an enquiry on Legal Heir Certificates. We are a family of four, father, mother, myself and my sister, based in Chennai. My father passed away last year owing to health ailment. We had applied for a legal heir certificate using his death certificate and we'd obtained the same last year. However, the legal heir only mentioned about the pension benefits and not the rest of the things such as property, shares, bank deposits, etc. I agree that this was our mistake to have not submitted the relevant documents to have these listed in the certificate. We have apologized to the authority and since then, we have been trying to make amendments to the obtained legal heir certificate to no effect as the authorities are not giving us the right guidance and procedure to have this change made. Its been 6-8 months and we have made several visits to the authority's office but the roads are leading us no where.
I would like to seek your advice on the matter and would like to ask you how I can have this change in the legal heir certificate made without further delay. Your advice is of absolute importance to us. Looking forward to hearing from you.
Thanks & Regards,
H
