How do you find out if you are beneficiary of dad's retirement with no will?
If your dad had a retirement account and passed away without a will, you may need to contact the retirement account provider and provide them with the necessary documentation to establish your beneficiary status. This could include a death certificate, proof of relationship to your dad, and any other required information. The retirement account provider will then determine if you are listed as a beneficiary on the account.
