• One-stop service “Tell us once”.

    A new Government scheme will help bereaved individuals inform local and national authorities by making just one phone call. The “Tell us once” service is activated when a death is registered. The person registering the death is given a single phone number to report the death. The scheme then informs the Passport Service, Driver and Vehicle Licence Agency, Department for Work and Pensions, the War Pensions Scheme, council tax authorities, HMRC, electoral roll, Libraries, and council departments that deal with disabled parking permits, home care, or council housing. Key documents will still need to be returned. For further information see direct.gov.uk and search for Tell us once.
