Applying for a death certificate

The primary feature of the website is to facilitate the ​death certificate process​. Creating a death certificate for a recently deceased relative çan be quite a tedious process but the website allows applicants to handle this with ease. There are a couple of documents needed for this process, the main one being a medical report that would have to be provided by a medical practitioner, doctor or a person in the field. After the death of the individual, the body has to be examined to determine the cause of death and to make sure there was no foul play or suspicious circumstance. Additionally, details about the person would also have to be provided like identification and how the individual going through the process is connected to the deceased.

Furthermore, there are a couple of application forms to be filled out as well.

Losing a death certificate

Applying for a death certificate is quite a straight forward process however re-applying for one can be another traumatic experience altogether. The website puts an end to that as well allowing people to go through the same process by just filling out different forms, stating that they lost the death certificate. If they have a copy of the death certificate, it would make the process easier otherwise, they would have to provide details about the individual when they are applying for a new one. In some cases, they might have to provide identification as well. This process should not take more than a couple of minutes and the death certificate would be sent to the address mentioned.

Making changes to a death certificate

Sometimes when the death certificate is delivered there might be issues with it. Sometimes the dates are not written correctly, names have been spelt wrong, and although these issues can be rectified, the process takes a lot of time. To make these changes without too much effort, handle them through the website. The application forms are already there and can be filled out in a few minutes. In some cases, you might notice that the wrong facts are written on the medical report so the change would have to be handled there before they make it to the death certificate, otherwise, just provide the identification that would allow them to be made directly.
