Notification of death

[Craazy 0]

I am the us citizen my husband was dutch, about 2 months after receiving his ten yr gc he passed away. That was in Sept of 2016.

I am trying to find out if there is anything i need to file regarding his death. I know I am a little slow on this but he truely was my

soul mate and life just sux without him.

I see so many post on here regarding divorce but finding true love a ocean away over a headset if very real. My husband and I

were together 24/7 yes we worked together side by side also, we never had a fight, never even a pfftt whatever moment, he was

my best friend , my everything and I miss him every second.

I'm very sorry to hear this. I cannot imagine losing my husband - it would be unbearable. You must be feeling a terrible pain in your heart. In terms of immigration, I don't think there is anyone else that needs to be informed. 

Did you inform the Dutch embassy in the USA? He was still a Dutch citizen when he died, wasn't he? 

 

On a non-immigration side, I hope you are able to find help to cope with your loss and the grief you are experiencing. Time is also a great healer. It won't seem that way now but in time you will start to feel a little better.

So sorry for your loss! 

 

Have you contacted the dutch embassy or his family in his home country so it can be resolved there? Since he is a citizen of that country still they will have to know. He might have some stuff there paper wise and money wise maybe.

Your post made me sad  

 

No idea re: the practicalities - perhaps notify the embassy - but please make sure to take some time for, and look after yourself, and perhaps something like talking to a therapist so it doesn't eat you alive from the inside.

I never thought about contacting dutch embassy I will look into that . He had to children still in the netherlands I was able to get in touch with our friend from there and he did let them know. His ex was harassing me pretty badly a few days after he passed away wanting a death cert. that i didnt even have yet .

He did have pension money there and had sent them our marriage cerf, and what not informing them he was married now , but there asking for a sofia number and I have not been able to obtain one .

JFH I hope you never know the pain of it. He never said he was sick or didnt feel well , we were outside drinking coffee and he walked 20ft from

me and dropped from a heart attack. He died in my arms.. He said I will love you forever , I am honored he did that very thing and every day treated

me like a queen. I am fortunate we never had unspoken words , we said i love you a thousand times a day to each other, morning kiss, goodnight kiss..

I am lucky to have known him altho the pain kills me today I wouldnt trade it.
