I think you meant "Next of Kin" which means the nearest survivor to the person who has died. IN a family with a husband wife and two children, if the Husband dies, the wife is Next of Kin. If both parents died, say in a car crash, then the children are next of kin to them. Hope this helps!

No, being a common law wife does not automatically confer the status of next of kin. Next of kin typically refers to a person's closest living blood relatives, such as a spouse, parents, or siblings. However, the legal recognition of common law relationships varies by jurisdiction, and in some cases, common law spouses may be granted certain rights and responsibilities similar to married couples.
If a man dies regardless of his competency, his sister is his next of kin because she is closest relative. If his wife is incompetent, she is still his next of kin. Any inheritance will be put into a trust for her benefit.
