New Jersey A1248 mandates creditors to accept electronic transmission of death certificates from personal representatives.

New Jersey A1248 amends existing law to require creditors to accept electronic document transmission for death certificates from personal representatives of decedents. This change aims to address issues faced by executors, such as claims that certificates were not received or were sent to the wrong address. Creditors who fail to accept electronic submissions are prohibited from presenting claims to the decedent's estate. The law takes effect immediately upon enactment.
