Banks require a surviving family member or authorized party to present an order from the probate court before they will access to or the closing of accounts of a deceased person. Creditors can be informed of the death of the account holder, but they will generally take no action towards the account until they have been contacted by the deceased's legally appointed representative. The exception would be accounts that were jointly held.

Is a letter of Testamentary necessary to close out accounts of a deceased loved one?

Letters Testamentary, when there is a will or Letters of Administration when there is no will are needed to close out a decedent's bank accounts assuming they are in his/her name alone. This is because banks do not turn a deceased person's money to anyone but the person authorized to take it. Letters Testamentary and Letters of Administration are basically proof of a person's legal authority to handle an estate.

Savings accounts opened with one bank cannot be transferred to another bank. You would have to close your existing bank account and then open a fresh account with the other bank. This feature is not available as yet and I don't think it will be in future as well.


What is Michelle Obama like?

By all accounts, she was very close to her parents, and especially admired her dad, who never missed a day of work despite suffering from several serious illnesses much of his life. To this day, she remains close to her mother (her dad is deceased); her mom is also a hands-on grandma to Michelle and Barack's two daughters.

Can brother of a deceased man inherit under Italian law where there is holographic will naming a life companion of deceased no marriage as universal legatee?

Accoding to the discussion page at the link below Italy recognizes a holographic (handwritten) will. No witnesses are necessary. Italian law requires that a testator leave a portion of their estate to their close family. That would include spouse, close descendants and close ancestors. You may have a claim against your brother's estate if he had no children and your parents are deceased. You would need to seek the advice of an attorney within that court system.

What is the proper etiquette to family of deceased husband when introducing a new fiance?

If you have become close and kept in contact with your deceased husband's parents then sit and have a talk with them first and explain that you have found another man you care about and you are going to be married. Most parents of a deceased son would understand that you need someone in your life. Then ask them if they would like to meet your fiance. If they prefer not to meet your fiance (do not take offense as they may feel obligated to the memory of their son) then abide by what they say. Hopefully they will say yes.
