UMy dad died on the 5th of fab. We were so heartbroken that we forgot we had to apply for a death certificate. In order to get his pension or job, a family member said we could take care of that, but now no one has even bothered to make a single call. We don’t have any savings, nor do we have any resources to earn in order to get anything we need a death certificate. Can anyone guide me on how I get it plz ?

SFrom the hospital where he died , If he died in hospital. Otherwise get it from nagar nigam if you are in city

Bvisit hospital or municipality or gram panchayat
You need to register death within 21 days.
Get atleast 15 original copies of death certificate by paying extra because whenever you go, they ask for original death certificate.
If 21 days are passed, still visit municipality and ask them procedure

UCan you share more details? Where did he pass away? If in a hospital, the hospital will issue a cause of death certificate. The hospital then sends it to the local municipal office and you can collect it from there on a specified date.
Since more than 21 days have passed now, go to the local municipal office and explain the situation, they will help you out. If necessary, do grease some palms as in this time of grief, you don’t want to fight other battles.
I’m sure, you aren’t the first one to have faced this, so don’t lose heart, there will be a way. Also, like another commentor said get 20-25 copies of the death certificate (max they can give) as in banks and other places, they ask for original copies to change the name of the nominee in the account, transfer of SIM etc.

UFirst of all, sorry for your loss.
Since you’ve mentioned he died at home.
Hospital won’t issue you the death certificate.1. If the area you live is urban,you’ll have to go to the nagar nigam office.
2. If it’s a rural area, you’ll have to contact the secretary (VDO) of that area. And he/she will issue the certificate.
If it’s the 2nd case, i can guide you further.

Ucontact the hospital that he was taken to, they’ll help you.
also pro tip: Now no one’s going to really ” be there ” . it’s just you and your very very immediate family like mother or siblings. The rest will slowly evaporate.
I hope you have the strength and courage to overcome this time of your life

UYou must have a pass for the crematorium right? Without it they won’t let you cremate the body. Also you might have the crematorium receipt.
Take those things, and your father’s adhaar, pan card and straightaway go to the municipality ward office and ask around.

HBro first check all his Bank account for nominee if not mentioned then update it online and make certificate after that date as he died at home you can do it .

UThis would cause so much legal trouble and potentially involve a police case as he might get into suspicion of killing his father for money. Please don’t give such stupid ass advice

KSorry for your loss, I have experienced the same situation lately, we had a contact in muncipality, & he did most of the work, the form needed two govt employees as witnesses.
Don’t forget to take atleast 10 copies of originals for banks, insurance and other purposes. Notify them ASAP. & look for any govt benefits that your family might qualify for, this will help with making things happen, don’t spend any money unless you have to. wait for it.

SSubmit Form 4A (Delayed Death Registration) at your nearest Municipal Corporation office or CSC center. For deaths reported after 21 days but within 1 year:
1-Requires notarized affidavit explaining delay (₹50 e-stamp paper)
2-Police verification report (if no hospital records)
3-Two witnesses’ sworn statements.
Do these, and hopefully your problem will be resolved. And sorry for your loss. Be strong 👍

UBe strong brother, this is the time you need to be strong and stand like a pillar to the family and yourself. There will not be anyone who will come to help or rescue you, you are alone and train to fight alone all battles which will make you stronger, and you will be proud one day how you were able get through this alone. All this will pass everything will get settled, just embrace everything and learn to handle things independently, make contacts for everything.
