The charges would not be any different just because the person is dead. Banks charge the same amount irrespective of whether the customer is alive or dead. However, to cash a dead persons check you need the following:
- A death certificate stating that the person is dead
- A Legal Will or any document that proves that you are the dead individuals legal heir and you have the right to do so
If you don't have the above 2 documents, the bank will not cash the check of a dead person.

Is it illegal for a check cashing company to cash social security check for someone other than the person listed on the check who happens to be dead?
Yes and no. The final payout from SSA for a dead person should have been mailed with the next of kin's name on it - contact the SSA about getting the check reissued with your name and supply a death certificate.Added: CAUTION: Unless the law has changed I do not believe the above answer is true. Even though the recepient may have died during the month, Social Security payments are no longer valid starting on the first day of the month in which the recepient died. To attempt to cash the SS checks of a decedent AFTER that day is federal offense. See add'l note on discussion page.

How can you tell if a person is dead?
If you think someone is dead but are unsure, you should: * call 911 or your local emergency department * check for a response, call their name * check for pulse * check for breathing * check their skin temperature (may be cold to touch) * check their lip color (may be pale or blue) * check their arms and legs (may be mottled) This may be "too" detailed, but important to note that only a DOCTOR or CORONER can confirm a person is dead (to sign the death certificate). They may possibly talk to the ambulance responders to ask questions to determine this over the phone, but this is rare.
