In this case, the self-classified owner (who is not a beneficiary) was married to the beneficiary of the property, who has subsequently passed away. Where this occurs, the property will be transferred directly to the surviving spouse, irrespective of whether the surviving spouse qualifies as a beneficiary.
To support this transfer, the surviving spouse needs to provide the following documents:
ID of the deceased
Marriage certificate
Death certificate
Will (if available)
If the occupancy survey has followed the process outlined in this toolkit, these documents will have been collected during the survey.
Once the data has been validated and the supporting documents are provided, the housing authority can transfer to the surviving spouse in like with the Core Registration Process.
