Usually not, unless they were listed on the original loan papers or they were part-owners of a family owned business or corporation. However, the estate the children might inherit would be subject to the debts of the parents.

Who is responsible for funeral expenses of mother living with daughter?

If there is no living spouse, the children are responsible. If the daughter is the only child, it is her responsibility. In return for raising children and the expenses associated with it, I would think the least a parent could expect is for their child to pay for their funeral.

Whoever arranges the funeral is responsible for paying. In this situation, it's better to not have a funeral. When something like that happens, most families would claim to not have the money, then the county would pay for a cremation.


Can family members be forced to pay cremation cost when the will is not settled?

That depends on the circumstances. Who called the funeral home to remove the body? Who made the funeral arrangements? Who signed the contract? If someone went to a funeral home and made arrangements for a funeral then they have usually signed a contract making them responsible for payment. Whoever made the arrangements should pay and try to get other family members to share the cost. If there was no money to pay for a funeral then arrangements for a funeral shouldn't have been made. In many jurisdictions the city or the county pays for the burial of indigent decedents.
