Where can I obtain copies of important documents?

Question

My father died overseas a few months ago, and he had all his important documentation with him. We only found his passport but we need other documents of his.

Where could we get copies of his

drivers license
naturalization papers?

Answer 1

If you have his passport, then you pretty much don't need anything else. No government or company is going to give you such things without a valid copy of the death certificate and a darned good reason for wanting the document(s).

After all, you wouldn't want just anybody obtaining your father's documents, would you? That would be illegal! =8O
