Contact the Embassy in Brasilia to get a Consular Report of Death Abroad, which works like a Death Certificate here in America. http://brasilia.usembassy.gov/index.php?action=materia&id=3763&submenu=consular.php&itemmenu=58

It's relatively uncomplicated to get the information you want.\n\nYou need to know the person's name and the county where the probate occurred.  Contact the local Court and explain you want to get a copy of a probate.  They will transfer you to the right person (be patient, it may take a few people, but you'll get there).\n\nWhen you get the right person on the phone, again, indicate you want a copy of the probate.  They should be able to search based on the name and approximate date of death.  Request they fax it to you, or mail it.  There is always a charge.  \n\nIf they require that you come in and get it (I've had this happen), explain that you are out of town.  It is not uncommon for someone out of town to request this information.  Usually, there is a small legal business that takes requests, goes in and copies the information, and will either fax or mail it to you for a reasonable fee.  Ask the clerk who frequently comes into their office and does this, and get their information.  Contact them.  Turn around time is usually 24-48 hours.\n\nFeel free to contact me with any other questions.  Good luck!\n\nJared

If you are in the USA, contact their consulate for information of emigrating to their country and process of getting citizenship.

Not even all people residing within the United States have a regular "brith certificate"--as was mentioned above, they are not issued by the federal government. \n\nTo get a little more in depth into the issue: \n\nIf someone was born a citizen and born within the US, they will likely have a birth certificate issued by their city, county, or state. However, if a person was born to American citizens who were living outside of the US at the time, that person would instead have a Consular Report of Birth Aboard. Likewise, If a person now living in the United States was not a citizen at birth but became one later in life, they would instead have a Naturalization Certificate/Certificate of Citizenship.

The first thing you need to do is make an appointment with the Brazilian Embassy because once you do that people will know you're serious. Meanwhile, your fiance needs to go to the American Embassy in Brazil and talk to them about getting a visa or a green card since you live in the United States and you guys are engaged to be married. \nThe Brazilian Embassy in Washington D.C. is here http://www.brasilemb.org/\nThe United States Embassy in Brasila is here http://www.embaixada-americana.org.br/\nThe request for her to some and live with you really shouldn't be denied especially if she intends to become a citizen. If all else fails, go to Brazil, marry her and reapply. They can't deny your wife entrance to America if she's married to a United States citizen, which I'm assuming you are. I hope this helps. The other thing to do is contact an immigration attorney and see what they say about the situation.

If you know the county they lived in and the name, approximate age you can contact the county courts system they should have a death certificate on file or you can go thru the social security office for deaths as well.  Good Luck to you.

Start here:  http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/howto/w2w/w2welcom.html \n\nOn that site, click on California and it will tell you what you need to obtain a birth certificate from that state.

Don't think you can but this looks helpful\nA family member or other person responsible for the beneficiary's affairs should do the following:\n\n- Promptly notify Social Security of the beneficiary's death by calling SSA toll-free at 1-800-772-1213. People who are deaf or hard of hearing may call our "TTY" number, 1-800-325-0778, between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. on business days.\n- If monthly benefits were being paid via direct deposit, notify the bank or other financial institution of the beneficiary's death. Request that any funds received for the month of death and later be returned to Social Security as soon as possible.\n- If benefits were being paid by check, DO NOT CASH any checks received for the month in which the beneficiary died or thereafter.\n\nReturn the checks to Social Security as soon as possible. To find your local Social Security office, see http://www.socialsecurity.gov/locator/.\n\nA one-time payment of $255 is payable to the surviving spouse if he or she was living with the beneficiary at the time of death, OR if living apart, was receiving Social Security benefits on the beneficiary's earnings record. If there is no surviving spouse, the payment is made to a child who was eligible for benefits on the beneficiary's earnings record in the month of death.

Try the city hall.  They should have a department of vital records.

If you're trying to determine whether or not someone has died and when they died, one place you can start is to search the Social Security Death Index. \n\nClick>>>http://ssdi.genealogy.rootsweb.com/

Write to Los Angeles and get a death certificate for him, which may tell where he is buried.  Get in touch with your local library family history department.  They can tell you how to get a death certificate, or perhaps how to contact a Los Angeles library for help. Good luck.

If your friend is from Brazil, he can't just establish himself in the US without first applying for a proper Visa with Immigration.  If he applies for a Green Card he would be able to get Employment Authorization, a Social Security Number and with that a Drivers License, etc.

It may take a little work and a little money,but the best thing to do is to first sit down with your parents or grandparents and collect important dates,like births, deaths, departures, and arrivals. Then the office of public records usually has death certificates and other information for about $5-$15 per document. Including birth records, and immigration list and charts. Don't fall for those crappy genealogy sites, they kinda just give you a general idea, about your last name etc. Now, if you want even further the National Geographic Society will send you a kit, and test your DNA and send you a map which will show your ancestral history back 100s of years. i hoped this helped .G'luck

Were you the Personal Representative or Executor of your husband estate?  I presume that it went through Probate unless he had a living trust.  If you served as PR, you should have something like Letters Testamentary or some other legal paperwork naming you PR of his estate.  This document is basically your "authority" for gathering information and acting on behalf of the estate.  If you're not the PR, whomever is would probably be the better person to request the records (as backwards as that sounds).  The court document, together with the Death Certificate and an authorization to release information, should get you the documents you need.  Be sure to address it to the medical records department.  Also, be prepared to pay $$ to get the records.  They'll very likely make you pay before you get the records.  \nIf all else fails, go back to your attorney.  A letter on firm letterhead can go a long way.  Best of luck.

The reports you need would have been filed in the state and county that he died in. Any death,to my knowledge that is not by natural causes is a coroner's case.Your first call should be to the coroner's office in the county of which he died.Most coroner's will sit down and talk with you if you have proof of who you are and make an appointment,generally the ones I've spoke with are very nice.The coroner could give you a copy of the death certificate because he or she would have had to do the autopsy and sign the death certificate.They would be able to answer almost any questions you would have or point you to any other office you might need to go to depending on what questions you have.If you have knowledge that this was not a death by natural causes then you would need to tell the coroner and the police.After doing an internet search,I realized that because you are in Hawaii,laws may be different,so I am listing some sites I found that may help you get started.Also you could do your own search.Just type in your search bar on your computer: how to get autopsy report in hawaii then click the search button.You might come up with something different than I did.Also you might want to speak with a lawyer before you speak to anyone else about your legal issue.You did not say which state your brother became deceased in,you just said you were from Hawaii.Just do an internet search,just like I told you above,just at the end of it put which state.So sorry to hear of your loved one's passing.Was glad to help you.

Contact the social security administration. I know here, in Wisconsin, the social security number is on the death certificate.
