Letter requesting information from the employer

Description

• Before proceeding with the inventory of the deceased's estate, it is essential to obtain all relevant information about him/her from any employer.
• The letter requesting information from the employer, available on this site, is suitable for most situations. It makes it easier to obtain the information needed to complete the estate inventory.
• In accordance with the provisions of any applicable legislation, including Bill 25, it is highly likely that the employer will require certain documents before sending you the data it holds in connection with the deceased:
  • A death certificate issued by the Directeur de l'état civil.
  • A will search issued by the Chambre des notaires du Québec and the Barreau du Québec.
  • A declaration of legal heirs or a designation of liquidator to establish the list of heirs, if the person died without leaving a will or with an incomplete will. If necessary, you can use our online notarized declaration of legal heirs service.
  • A copy of the will, if the person died leaving a will.
