If the deceased was receiving either:
a social welfare payment
a state pension
you must notify the Department of Social Protection (DSP) of their death. This is important to prevent overpayments.
You can contact the DSP via:
email at info@welfare.ie
phone on (01)7043000
You will need to provide the PPSN of the deceased.
If overpayments have occurred you should forward any correspondence to your solicitor.
