Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 6, March 18, 2024

(a) A deduction is allowed in the case of a claim by a county welfare board or a State institution for money advanced to or on account of the care provided to a decedent as an indigent person, provided that such claim is accompanied by the following documents:

1. A letter signed by a representative of the welfare board or State institution stating the exact amount due from the decedent as of the date of death;

2. A supplemental affidavit of the executor, heir, or administrator, as the case may be, stating whether or not he or she acknowledges the correctness of the amount of the claim and will pay the same in full out of the assets of the estate. If not, the supplemental affidavit should set forth the facts involved, and if the matter has been settled, set forth the amount that has been paid or will be paid in settlement.

(b) Where a representative of the welfare board also acts as a representative of the estate, such as an executor or administrator, the representative is only required to submit the affidavit in which the claim is made, signed by the representative of the welfare board as executor, administrator, or otherwise. In such instances, the Division will not investigate unless other data in the record indicates that the amount claimed is in error.
