The simplest way to get certified copies of a death certificate is to order them through the funeral home or mortuary at the time of the death. If you are in charge of winding up the deceased person�s affairs, you should ask for at least ten copies. You will need one each time you claim property or benefits that belonged to the deceased person, including life insurance proceeds, Social Security benefits, payable on death accounts, veterans benefits, and many others.

If the time of death has passed and you need to order death certificates yourself, contact the county or state vital records office. For deaths that occurred within the past few months, you should start with the county office, because it is more likely to have the certificate on file. After a few months have passed, the state office will probably have it, too.

A death certificate is a document containing the details of a death that took place in Afghanistan. You can order a copy or multiple copies online, if the death is registered in Afghanistan. You can use this certificate to cancel a health card or driver�s license and for insurance purposes.

The record that is referred to as a Death Certificate is issued by Vital Records. The registrar will acknowledge and literally register that a person has died on a specific date and include the location of the death. Also the cause of death is recorded. Afterwards, all of this information will be recorded in an official register of deaths.

The funeral home, cremation organization, or other person in charge of the deceased person�s remains will prepare and file the death certificate. Preparing the certificate involves gathering personal information from family members and obtaining the signature of a doctor, medical examiner, or coroner. The process must be completed quickly -- within three to ten days, depending on state law.

When a loved one passes away, a death certificate is created to mark the time and cause of their passing. Often a family member needs a copy of a death certificate when settling an estate, for insurance purposes, or for gaining access or terminating government services, including health care or pension plans.
