If one adult child goes into a bank to close deceased parents checking account does bank have to tell other children who picked up the money?
An adult child cannot close the account unless they are a joint owner of the account. If they were placed on the account for purposes of convenience then they are legally obligated to share the funds with all their siblings equally. If they did manage, somehow, to close the account without being a joint owner their actions would be illegal and they would be stealing. If there is any property in your last surviving parent's estate that was solely owned by them then you need to probate the estate in order for someone to be appointed the administrator. That person will have the authority to close the account and distribute the remaining funds.
