The process of returning Fonavi contributions has become more accessible for the heirs of deceased Fonavistas. The Ad Hoc Commission has determined that it is no longer necessary to have a will or intestate succession for spouses, children and other heirs to claim these funds.
Below, we will detail who are the beneficiaries who can claim the contributions of a deceased Fonavista, the documents necessary to do so and the changes planned for reimbursement group 2. This guide is essential to understand the process and ensure you meet all the requirements .
Who can collect the contributions of a deceased Fonavista?
To claim the return of contributions from a deceased Fonavista, it is vital to know the order of priority of the forced heirs. Firstly, the priority right falls to the spouse or cohabiting partner of the deceased. If the Fonavista does not have a spouse, the children are next in the line of succession.
If there are no children, the parents of the deceased can proceed with the collection. Finally, in the absence of a spouse, children or parents, the siblings of the deceased owner have the right to claim the funds. It is important to note that, although the presence of a will is not mandatory to start the process.
Fonavi refund: what documents must the heirs present?
All heirs interested in collecting Fonavi contributions must previously verify if the deceased Fonavi member is on the lists published by the Technical Secretariat of the Ad Hoc Commission. This verification can be carried out on the official Fonavi websites.
To proceed with the collection, it is recommended that applicants present a sworn statement at any Banco de la Nación agency, along with their ID and the corresponding documents.
- Fonavista’s death certificate
- Marriage certificate or proof of de facto union for the spouse.
- If the children will collect the contributions, they must present their birth certificate, as should the parents, if applicable.
- In the case of siblings, the birth certificates of both the applicant and the deceased Fonavista are required.
When will reimbursement group 2 be paid and what changes would it have?
The Ad Hoc Commission has indicated that payments for beneficiaries in reimbursement group 2 will begin approximately in two months. It is projected that the start of payments will be between the first and second week of July. Jorge Milla, representative of the commission, has mentioned to La República that a rethinking will be carried out in this group to avoid saturation of the National bank.
Initially, reimbursement group 2 was going to be made up only of relatives of deceased Fonavistas; However, it is now being proposed to incorporate living former taxpayers between 77 and 80 years old.
This measure aims to reduce document congestion in Banco de la Nación agencies and accelerate the process of returning contributions. According to Milla, this new strategy is being evaluated by the Technical Secretariat to define the best way to implement it and ensure an efficient and orderly process.
