Deceased Member Procedure - CUNA
Deceased Member Procedure Revised 05/10
All Accounts:
1. When notification is received, the member’s account should be marked with a scrolling message showing date of death. In the FSP on the MEMBER MAINTENANCE screen, click on MEMBER DETAILS, on the right side of the screen in the DATES section, enter the date of death. The Date of Death entered into member details stops ACH transaction on the account. Also, at the top of the same screen, click on MESSAGE and enter “Member deceased XX/XX/XX” and click Finish and No for “Is this a member request?”. If we have received notice through an obituary, please mail out sympathy card and letter of information as soon as possible.
2. The deceased ATM/Debit card needs to be hot carded and closed on both Elan and FSP. Please follow normal instructions for hot carding debit cards on both systems.
3. Government benefits, SSI, etc., received after the date of death must be returned to the originator or a stop payment should be placed on the receiving account to prevent further credits from posting. This should be at no charge to the member.
4. Recurring debits should be blocked with a stop payment unless a joint owner submits a request in writing that they be allowed to continue. Preferably, the joint owner will open a new account with a checking account and transfer the entire balance available from the deceased account and the originator of the debit can be notified of a change with the new account numbers.
For Joint Accounts:
The joint owner(s) has the right of survivorship on all accounts except IRAs. The joint owner will be disbursed all the funds per the Deceased Member Worksheet following:
If there was an insurance beneficiary designated, that person will receive the Life Savings benefits. If none is named, the joint owner becomes the beneficiary of the Life Savings benefits.
If there is no joint owner, the funds in the account are given to the Court Appointed Personal Representative who presents you with a raised seal original copy of the appointments. The funds should be payable exactly as the appointment states.
Does the Member have any loans covered with Credit Disability Insurance or Credit Life insurance?
To determine:
In FSP, go to the LOANS tool bar. Click on LOAN MAINTENANCE. In the drop down box, choose the loan to be viewed and click LOOKUP. When the information comes up, click on the second tab, LOAN DETAILS and the insurance code will be on the right side, second blank down. Repeat this step for all loans.
Please check transaction history on those covered with both and determine if loan is receiving Credit Disability payments at that time.
If covered by either, please refer to loan officer to file claim.
Does the member have any loans that are not covered by Credit Life?
Notify the Collection Officer and Branch Vice President at this time to determine how the loan needs to be handled.
Does the contact person know of any account which this member is joint on that may need to have a beneficiary change?
Is any other account number receiving benefits from this member?
When changing beneficiary on the contact and other joint owners’ accounts consider all possible associations, ie Shares, IRAs, ATM, Loans, etc.
