You may request an amount of no more than $1,000 from the decedent's IIM account if:

You are responsible for making the funeral arrangements on behalf of the family of a decedent who had an IIM account;

You have an immediate need to pay for funeral arrangements before burial; and

The decedent's IIM account contains more than $2,500 on the date of death.

You must apply for funds under paragraph (a) of this section and submit to us an original itemized estimate of the cost of the service to be rendered and the identification of the service provider.

We may approve reasonable costs of no more than $1,000 that are necessary for the burial services, taking into consideration:

The total amount in the IIM account;

The availability of non-trust funds; and

Any other relevant factors.

We will make payments directly to the providers of the services.
