How This 1 Typo "Kills" 14,000 People Every Year
What if you wake up one day and don’t exist anymore, legally presumed dead, your stuff sold off, and your family moved on? This happens more often than you’d think, being legally dead and trying to get back your life, bank accounts, and house. Let’s get into it.

Yup, That "typo" happened to me last year. Fortunately, I found out a few days later, so it only took a few months to clear up most of it. Still, there are banking repercussions of having been formerly "deceased"
in the philippines… the law does not have any prescription in proving that the presumptive death is erroneous.
Braaaaaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiins

Oh my God I just got it. Luke Worm.
All it takes is one letter
Bilbo was gone for 2 years, not a few months.
My ex's mom's boyfriend faked his death in Canada and has been living here in the USA for the past 10 years or so , all 3 living on my ex's income. the mom will take a job and the bf will do under the table job if my ex falls behind in bills/rent. they quit the jobs when he's caught up
Here comes the killjoy
This is the perfect example of "i can't see it, it doesn't exist."
if you commit a crime while being legally dead could you go to jail?
I went to school with a guy who, a few years before, was crossing a flooded street. He asked his friend a question and failed to get a response turned and saw that his friend was gone. There had not been enough time for the friend to get to a place where he couldn't be seen, especially considering the hip deep water.
Thinking his friend had tripped on something he back tracked to see if he could find his friend and nearly fell into an open man hole. The manhole led to the storm sewer that, because it carried only storm water drained directly into the bay.
Though the kid's body was never recovered he was declaimed dead right away, as there was no doubt what had happened to him.
The currents running through the flooded storm sewer system were quite strong, and from where that man hole was, there was nowhere that you could get out between that manhole and the outlet into the bay.
I would have taken several minutes to get to the bay, so there was no doubt that he had drowned.
Those noseless drawings are terrifying
I present to you, the legal system

Great quote comes to mind:
"He is spending a year dead for tax reasons"
A friend of mine has the opposite issue.
2 social security numbers.
Their parents used one to claim benefits.
And the other one is a ghost.
I've nomodea how they actually function or what the solution was.
I knew somebody who was registered dead when they were a child. They didn't know until they were trying to get a passport, it took a few months to clear up but didn't cause any other problems because it was the late 80's.
