After your spouse dies is there paperwork that has to be filled out to declare the living spouse a widow or widower? My dad past and my mom needs to know.

I always thought it was a courtesy title.
She can go to this website and maybe they'll have better information for her.

No paper work to fill out, she automatically becomes a widow no matter what.

She is a widow - there is no paperwork to earn that title.
My condolences.

Affidavit of Death - record it with the county recorder's office .... you can find the forms on-line usually ... you will need the original certified death certificate when you get it recorded ... !

Technically... when you've been married and divorced, you're continually divorced. the only way you should legally be referred to as unmarried again somewhat than divorced, is in case you've been to have the marriage annulled.

the death certificate of your dad is the only thing she needs.
