What is my best option to refund the check from the insurance company of my deceased son?

Dara J. Goldsmith
Answered by attorney Dara J. Goldsmith
Estate Planning lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
Ask that it be made payable to the funeral home for his burial and then the funeral home can refund monies to you that you expended. You may be able to use an affidavit of entitlement at the bank but include in it that you paid the funeral expense of an amount in excess of the $579, as funeral expenses are a priority over creditors. Aside from trying those options, or if neither is successful, you will need to go to probate court.

If everybody agrees the intention was that it goes equally to the three of you, then each reports one-third of the gain or loss. Be sure to file a gift tax return for your late mother.
