Costs of certificates are approximately € 10.00 per copy. If a post mortem has taken place, it could take anything from 3 months onwards for the Coroners inquest report to be established. You should contact the Coroner involved in relation to this. If you need an Interim Death Certificate in the meantime, the Coroners office will issue this but there will be a cost involved.</p><h2>Bereavement Grant</h2><p>The bereavement grant no longer exists.</p><h2>Death Benefit</h2><p>The Death Benefit is a Social Welfare Grant. This is to help towards the cost of the funeral expenses. The person that is paying for this should apply to the Social Welfare Officer at their local Health Centre - they should bring along a copy of the Death Certificate / Interim Death Certificate and a copy of the Funeral Invoice for this grant.</p><h2>Old Age Pension Books</h2><p>Pension Books should be returned to the local Post Office. If there is either a husband or wife left behind and they are not divorced or legally separated, they are entitled to the deceased persons pension in full for a further 6 weeks. However, the pension book should be returned to the Post Office as soon as possible after the death has occurred and the 6 week pension will be sent to them in full within 2 to 3 weeks.</p><h2>Widows / Widowers Contributory &amp; Non-Contributory Pensions</h2><p>The application forms and explanatory booklets may be given to a family member at the time of the funeral arrangements or may be obtained from our offices.</p><h2>Carer's Allowance</h2><p>If a family member / friend is on Carer's Allowance when the death of the person they are claiming for occurs the person claiming Carer's Allowance is entitled to the allowance for a further 6 weeks.

There is little difference in the overall cost should the family own a grave. However, if a new grave needs to be purchased, then this can add significantly to the cost of the funeral (<strong>This payment must be paid in advance of the burial to the Funeral Director</strong>).

We will then make all the necessary arrangements.</p><h2>Payment of Funeral Invoice</h2><p>Funeral Invoices should be paid for within 30 days from the date of the invoice.
