The deceased's estate pays all debts. The executor (RIX) of the estate is responsible for ensuring that creditors are notified. Creditors notify the estate that the debt is owed. The money from the estate (or assets are sold to raise money) is used to repay debts. If there is no money, the debt is written off. Other people (family members in general) are not required to pay the debts unless they are co-owners or co-signing the debt. So, if there are assets remaining are distributed to heirs. A house that is mortgaged or a car that is funded should be sold unless a family member is willing and able to assume the mortgage.

Note: If a life insurance policy named the beneficiary's estate, that money is used to settle debts. If the life insurance policy named persons as beneficiaries, that money is not used to settle debts - because life insurance products in this situation goes to heirs outside of probate.

If the person concerned at any time of death, while the property goes to the credit card company instead of the family. If the family wants, they can decide to pay credit card debt so they can keep the property. However, they are not required to use their own money to pay, nor do they have to prove that the person is dead (even if the person is alive, the family did not pay). The credit card company is entitled to whatever the person has had, and nothing more.

The debt dies with them, but the creditor may request any cons estate.

And, no, on the contrary, no relative or friend is required to pay unless they cosigned for her!

The estate is responsible for all debts. The assets must be liquidated to pay debts before anything is passed to heirs. We do not inherit the debt. If the estate has insufficient assets to cover the debt, creditors will have to amortize the debt.

Just send a notice to creditors of a photocopy of the death certificate (you do not need to send a certified copy expensive). Indicate that the estate can not pay debts.

Some credit cards will try to survive parents to pay the credit cards. Do not bother talking on the phone. The parents are not personally liable for debts.

As stated by most people, the deceased's estate pays the debt. Note, however, that if the victim is in a community property state, the spouse will be responsible for debts incurred during marriage.
