Cremation Planning Checklist

Gather Important Documents

Social Security number, birth certificate, marriage certificate, military discharge papers (DD-214 if veteran), life insurance policies, and any pre-need cremation arrangements.

Decide on Services

Choose between direct cremation (no ceremony, most affordable), cremation with a memorial service, or cremation with a full viewing and funeral. Consider whether you want the service before or after cremation.

Notify Relevant Parties

Social Security Administration, employer/pension providers, banks and credit cards, insurance companies, Veterans Affairs (if applicable), and the Iowa DMV for driver's license cancellation.
