What is required when there has been a successor funeral establishment designated?

Delay payment until notified
Pay all funeral funds to the successor immediately
Transfer only partial funds
Notify the Board

The correct answer is: Pay all funeral funds to the successor immediately

When a successor funeral establishment has been designated, it is required that all funeral funds be paid to the successor immediately. This practice ensures that the intended successor has the necessary resources to handle the deceased's funeral arrangements effectively. Prompt payment helps in maintaining continuity of services and supports the successor in fulfilling the obligations towards the family and the deceased. In this context, timely transferring the funds secures the rights of the successor, as they are now responsible for managing the funeral services. This practice aligns with the legal and ethical standards outlined in funeral law to protect the interests of all parties involved.
