Benefits and payments after a death
The state pays a funeral benefit, and in some cases the family is also entitled to other payments. Claiming them means gathering documents and applying to the right offices, and we will guide you through it and spare you unnecessary journeys.

Ask us a question
Who is entitled to the funeral benefit?
Usually the person who paid for the funeral. The conditions and the amount depend on the status of the deceased, for example whether they were employed, receiving a pension or registered as unemployed. Call 14 000 and we will tell you exactly what applies in your case.
Is there a deadline for applying?
Yes, these payments are subject to time limits, so it is best not to delay your claim. Call us and we will tell you the deadlines that apply in your situation.
Can you help with the paperwork?
Yes, it is part of what we do. We will tell you what to gather, check the documents with you and explain where to submit them.
