Communication of death of a benefit recipient < Go back

This service allows you to report the death of a recipient of Social Security benefits through the electronic register.

About this procedure

Who it is for

Any person wishing to report the death of a recipient of Social Security benefits.

What you can do

  • Attach and send the corresponding death certificate.

What you need to do it

  • Attach the death certificate.
  • If you are acting as a representative, you must attach the standardised representation form, which can be found in the accompanying documents section, or any legally valid document that is proof of the representation.

Please note

If you are logging in with a Username + Password (permanent Cl@ve), in order to guarantee a higher level of security, you will be sent a code via SMS to the mobile number that you provided at the time of registration. You must enter this code in order to sign the communication in the electronic register.

The processing province is the one to which you wish to submit your communication.

Your connection has a time limit. Therefore, if your session times out while filling in the application form you have to restart the session and complete the items pending.

The total size of the documents to be attached must not exceed 10 Mb.

Next steps

Once the process has been completed, you will receive a “proof of receipt” in PDF format.

If you do not receive the confirmation message, or if you receive an error or failed sending message, you should resubmit the application at another time or use other channels.
