Grief happened - a man died. No matter how hard it is, after the funeral, it is necessary to collect documents for registration of the inheritance for the apartment.
The first thing to do is to declare yourself as an heir. To do this, get acquainted with the notary public who serves the deceased's residence. By law, you can visit him up to six months from the date of death of a loved one, but it is better to do this as soon as possible. Thus, you officially declare the desire to enter into rights earlier than the other heirs. In addition, you will have more time to consult with specialists and collect the documents necessary for registration of the inheritance. If you don’t contact a notary public within six months, you will have to resolve inheritance issues through the courts.
To begin with, remember whether the will was made. If so, a copy of this document should be in the apartment. A copy of the will is needed to find out the name and address of the notary. The absence of a document says a lot: either the will is closed and for its announcement to the notary they will invite everyone who is indicated in this document, or the will was not drawn up at all, and you will draw up the inheritance by law. One way or another, find out where the notary office is nearby, and prepare documents for registration of the inheritance.
You will need the originals and copies of the death certificate and your passport. If your last name is not the same as that of the deceased, you must confirm that you were related to him. This may require
a birth, divorce, or marriage certificate. An extract from the place of residence is also required (certificate of deregistration). Far from superfluous will be a state certificate of ownership of real estate and a certificate from the registry, as well as a
technical passport of premises from BTI.
In order to prepare everything for sure, look up the phone number of your notary’s office in the directory , call and specify what documents are needed to complete the inheritance.
During the first visit to the notary office, the opening of the inheritance will be executed . According to the law, it was discovered much earlier, on the day of the registration of the death of a relative.
After signing the first papers and paying the state duty, the notary will tell you what documents to obtain the inheritance must be collected. You have six months to stand in line and get all the papers. By law, this time is necessary in order to enable other heirs to claim their rights.
As soon as you bring to the notary everything that he wants, this representative of the government will solemnly present you with a certificate of inheritance. With this paper you need to contact the Federal State Registration Service.
Documents for registration of the inheritance can be considered collected. Now you have to pay the state fee and wait a bit. Some manage to complete the job in a couple of weeks, while others wait a month or more.
You will become the owner of the apartment when you receive BTI documents and a state registration certificate issued in your name. From this moment you yourself will be able to bequeath your property to anyone.
