After downloading the necessary form, follow these steps: Verify that it is the correct form by previewing it and reviewing its details.
There are various components to the titling of assets: One is using a transfer on death (TOD) designation, generally used for investment accounts, or a payable on death (POD) designation, used for bank accounts, which act as beneficiary designations, stating to whom account assets are to pass when the owner dies.
Setting up a payable-on-death account could make sense if you want to make sure your beneficiaries have a source of ready cash when you pass away. But you may still need a living trust if you have other assets you want to transfer, such as real estate, vehicles, investments or business assets.
Go to your bank and tell them that you want to make your bank account payable on death. Your bank will ask you to name a beneficiary or beneficiaries (the person or people you want the money to go to) and to sign your name to confirm that this is what you want to do.
A Payable on Death (POD) beneficiary is an individual, group of individuals, non-profit, company, organization or trust, other than the owner or co-owner, designated by the owner(s) of the account to receive the balance of funds when the last owner on the account passes away.
The account holder needs only to notify the bank of who the beneficiary should be. The bank, on its end, will give the owner of the account a beneficiary designation form called a Totten trust to fill out. The completed form gives the bank authorization to convert the account to a POD.
