15+ steps
Freeze & protect estate assets immediately
Mixing estate funds with personal funds can create executor liability. Your checklist explains the correct sequence before you touch anything.
Risk
Notify the superannuation fund now
Super does not automatically form part of the estate. The fund decides who receives it and delays can affect the outcome. Here's what to do.
Have ready
Stop recurring payments & direct debits
These keep drawing from the estate after death. Cancelling in the wrong order can complicate account closure with the bank.
Action
Determine whether probate is required
This single question affects every financial step that follows. Getting it wrong can cause months of delay and personal liability for the executor.

Secure property and important documents
Failure to secure can create legal and financial risk for the executor

This is practical guidance, not legal advice

What To Do After Loss provides administrative checklists to help you understand what tasks may need to be done after a bereavement. It is not a substitute for professional legal, financial, or estate planning advice. Every situation is different, and for complex estates we recommend consulting a solicitor or financial adviser. If you are unsure about your obligations, please seek professional guidance.
