What are the financial qualifications for eligibility?

The funeral home will refer the case to the burial program if the decedent’s estate or their family’s total assets are less than $350.00. If the funds are less than $350.00 the program will review the case to determine what financial assistance is available.

In order to determine eligibility the program will require financial documentation that the deceased person’s estate and their family members do not have the ability to pay any funeral expenses from any resource or income.
