You can also add non-guaranteed cash advance items to your funeral contract for things like an obituary, death certificates, and sales tax.

A Funeral Trust, or Qualified Funeral Trust, is a special financial vehicle that allows you to set aside money for anticipated funeral costs.
A trust will typically be used if you are on Hospice, or have been given a diagnosis of having less than 12 months to live.
When you establish a trust, you make arrangements with a funeral home to provide services upon death.
If you have not paid your trust in full at your time of death, your family will owe the remaining balance of your guaranteed and non-guaranteed cash advance funeral home expenses.
(Think of this as a savings account for your funeral expenses, with a $100 Minimum Down Payment to start your trust.)
This is a wonderful option for families who are wanting to preplan for a loved one who is nearing their end of life, and they want to have all the paperwork and planning completed ahead of time.)
