Did you know you can claim cash assistance under the Sumbangan Tunai Rahmah 2026 Death Benefit Scheme, officially known as Skim Khairat Kematian, if an eligible recipient passes away?
The scheme covers deaths occurring between 1st January 2026 and 31st December 2026, allowing eligible family members and registered heirs to process payouts directly at any Bank Simpanan Nasional (BSN) counter nationwide.
To ensure a smooth payout process, claimants must meet specific criteria and present official supporting documentation at the branch.
Who is eligible to submit a claim?
Eligibility is determined by the marital status recorded in the approved STR 2026 application.
For married applicants, priority is given to a surviving Malaysian spouse or the partner registered in the system.
If the applicant or spouse is unable to visit the bank in person, the registered heir listed in the STR 2026 records can claim the payout using additional supporting documents.
For single parents with eligible children or elderly recipients without a partner, the claim must be made by the registered heir specified in the application.
Qualifying relationships include spouses, mothers, fathers, siblings, grandchildren, and children, which covers biological children, stepchildren, and legally adopted children.
What documents do you need at Bank Simpanan Nasional?
When making a claim at a Bank Simpanan Nasional branch, claimants must bring the original death certificate or an officially certified copy from the National Registration Department.
The claimant must also present their original identification document alongside any extra supporting paperwork required for verification.
For further details on rules and requirements, you can check the official STR 2026 SKK FAQ, visit the official portal at bantuantunai.hasil.gov.my, or contact the hotline at 1-800-88-2747.
