Basic Funerals believes that everyone has the right to a dignified funeral. Municipalities across Ontario offer coverage for funeral services on behalf of residents whose estates cannot otherwise cover the cost. Contact us today for more information on how to begin the application process.
Please note: When a municipality pays for funeral expenses, they receive the Proof of Death Certificates and begin their process of recouping losses from the deceased’s accounts and/or the CPP Death Benefits. When they are satisfied, they will release the certificates to the family. They typically require a written request for certificates, and their process can take anywhere from a few weeks to a few months. The funeral home will be unable to provide Proof of Death Certificates to anyone without the municipality’s permission.
Ontario Works is a service provided to help offset basic funeral expenses for those who cannot afford it. Provided on behalf of the deceased, Ontario Works may cover the cost of funeral services including transfer of the deceased from the place of death, cremation, burial plot, urn, or casket.
We are available to serve your family across most of Ontario from our conveniently located licensed establishments, or from the comfort of your home.
