How can me and my daughter claim PF & Gratuity of my deceased husband
07-Nov-2023 (In Civil Law)
My deceased husband has nominated me and my daughter as his nominee for PF and gratuity .I work in MNC company , my in laws has sent legal heir document to my company and made pf and gratuity claim as disputed as per company . Now we weeks back , my in laws have sent letter to company saying they have no problem in releasing money to me n my daughter .Then asked them to sign indenmity bond which they declined . So recently when spoke to HR , now they are saying that i should get succession certificate .I have given them legal heir document told them told it should suffice as getting succession certificate is pain for me as my in laws will not cooperate . So please advise , with legal heir document company can proceed ? Secondly i asked them if first option doesn't work then give mine n my daughter share . Please advise best possible workaround for this situation keeping this in mind that my in laws won't cooperate for anything .
For all the properties whether movable (cash etc.) or immovable owned by your husband, you and your daughter are the only legal heirs and successors. Your in-laws or any one else would have no right over the same especially when you are named as nominee. You as a trustee for the PF etc., would have to get the money. Succession certificate may be required if the company insist on that. Even in that event, your in-laws would not get any right.
