My father lived and died in Kerala while i am currently living in Bangalore which is my permanent address. How can I apply for legal heir certificate? When i try to apply through Kerala gov portal it doesn't allow anyone who is not living in Kerala to apply. But when i go to Karnataka website it is not providing legal heir application facility itself.

As you mentioned parents are living in Kerala you have to approach the keral office for legal heir certificate because the person where he resides and took birth that area registered office have all the information about that familys every location area have different jurisdiction to issue certificates as per that you have to approach

In Karnataka you can apply for surviving members certificate and you can also approach the court for getting the legal heirs certificate if your application for surviving members certificate is rejected by the concerned revenue officer. If you have huge amount etc in your father's name you have to get a succession certificate from court in order to claim the property left by your father.
