I have problem with the bank checking account of my husband. He passed away in XXXX XXXX, XXXX. He has this account only under his name, and the montly bank statement only shows his name, but I am the beneficiary of his account. He oppened this bank account around XXXX or XXXX in Texas.

My husband explain to the worker than he need my name in the account only as a beneficiary. The worker from this bank added my name, I gave my personal documents, passport and social security number. But he never gave us any document to bring at home. That is comun in the bank they normaly do n't provide any document to the owner or to the beneficiary. The information only stay in the system in the bank. My husband was 100 % sure, because he knew if he passed away my name is in the system as a beneficiary.
