CERTIFICATE OF LIFE SERVICES
Certificate of Life
A Certificate of Life is used to prove that you are still alive for a variety of circumstances. It can also be known as a Proof of Life Certificate, Certificate of Existence, a Letter of Existence, or a Life Certificate.
Usually, it will be a form that you fill out with all of the relevant details to prove that you are alive and well.
It also allows you to state if you are becoming too ill to be able to handle your own affairs, if you have moved house, and other important details that may impact your finances.
Governments, insurance companies and pension funds use a Certificate of Life to prove that a person is still alive. This is done to act as proof that they can keep claiming their pension or benefits. They are more commonly used if someone moves out of the UK, but wants to continue claiming their pension.
Insurance companies may have their own version of a Certificate of Life that differs in style from Government bodies.
