61 Pa. Code § 93.41 - Entry into safe deposit box after notice to the Department
(a) This section is intended to apply as an
alternative for entry into the safe deposit box of a decedent. If an individual
does not wish to follow these provisions to secure entry into a safe deposit
box, he may enter the box after he has mailed a notice by certified mail to the
Department, the local office of the Department, and also the financial
institution in which the box is located, specifying the date fixed for entry
and the place where the box is located. Notice of entry under this section
shall be made so that the date fixed for entry and contained in the notice may
not be less than 7 days after the date the notice is mailed. In computing the 7
days, the day the notice is mailed may not be computed. For example, if the
notice was mailed on January 1, 1962, in computing the 7 days, the computation
would begin January 2, and would include the third through the eighth and entry
could be made on the ninth or thereafter.
(b) The notice shall be printed or written
legibly in ink and shall contain the following information:
(1) The name and address of the
decedent.
(2) The name and address
of the financial institution where the safe deposit box is located.
(3) The exact time during normal business
hours of the financial institution when entry is to be made, whether daylight
or standard time.
(4) The applicant
for entry shall sign and print his name and address, stating his relationship,
if any, to the decedent.
