The social benefits left uncollected by the deceased person with disabilities, representing the allowance and/or the complementary personal budget for the month in which the death occurred, and, as the case may be, the social benefits due and unpaid until the time of death, shall be paid to the surviving spouse, children, parents, or, in their absence, to the other heirs, according to common law, at their request. The amounts provided above may be claimed, at the territorial agency for payments and social inspection, by the heir, within the general statute of limitations, based on the document attesting heir status, as well as, in the situation where there are several heirs, a declaration on their own responsibility that the other heirs are not requesting these amounts.
