Die with zero

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

It’s understandable that you don’t want a wasted trip. How are you going to get the paperwork checked?
I don’t know
Even if the original documents existed they would not coincide with the “ real “ home made corrected ones
made to order for the local passport . The mother is illiterate and did not keep any prenatal records
To her my name is my made up facebook name I made because nobody ( girls ) here could remember or say
my real name .. so I made a simple name . There are so many blanks . They must all be “ required “
The first trip would definitely be useless , I can’t bring ( my ) policeman to make them do what he did in her province
To “ correct “ the facts of the matter . That’s why I want to know beforehand hand if the real stuff was even available
It would be incorrect and they corrected it to make me a passport for my little kid , but he is still entitled to american recognition because of me .. so if she was dead or in jail woukd that make a difference ?
Can’t they just say in lieu of that also submit a DNA test ?
Why do I have to go in person for an automatic rejection ?

Then don’t go so you can keep complaining about it.

As mentioned here for the child issue. I would look into making an Estate Plan designating a qualified Attorney as the Trustee to your child. Stop fussing with the Embassy.

I don’t have an estate ,
I just have money in the bank I don’t want to just disappear with my kids name on the account
That is what the bank said will happen to it if he is a minor .
What good would it do to keep it in a safe in my house ?
It would also disappear that a way
And I have life insurance I am trying to contact my government
to see if he could get that if he is cambodian
He would have to stake the claim after i died so would need help doing that
They don’t just contact your beneficiary when you die .
You have to claim it .. probly just as much trouble as I’m having trying to contact them by computer 💻
Been trying to sort this out for days

I’ve heard back from the chidrens trust which the random dude recommended and they passed the buck to
No less than 4 different other NGOs , But said “ never dealt with this kind of situation and not their line of work “
I just plain out do not trust lawyers so not going that route
I would rather , keep doing this . The expat forum and hoping someone in the same boat will appear
Just don’t really feel like focusing alot of energy on NGO’s
They want money , and I need to get money to the kid , not to them or lawyers .
I need an agent in phnom penh ?.. find some kind of middle man to go submit my paperwork to the embassy for me
So I can go there when everything is all “ set “ .

I am confused. You don’t want to spend money on NGOs, lawyers, or others to make your inheritance secure (as possible in Cambodia).

Yet you want an agent (or better an expat) to magically do all this work for free? You have a messy situation requiring lots of work. But don’t want to pay. Nothing is done for free.

Life insurance disappears after the term is over or if premiums aren’t paid. The US government isn’t going to magically get back an expired policy.

Sorry for your situation and hope you things turn out for the best.

I have a paid up , paid off , life insurance policy
Which I am trying to access my acct. that I lost track of because my computer 💻 died
With all the info on it , and yea , I do not feel like going to Pp to the embassy
for a definite waste of time and energy. .
I see the government looks like they are upping all sorts of perks I never knew about
I have questions and am working on that now .
Then maybe , if I have any DNA proof or anything off my body or before
Maybe it would be easier for the young motherless kid to do this on his own after i die
Same times he finds out I left him a surprise of who knows what I can get for him
( it’s all listed here .. https://content.govdelivery.com/account ... ns/36e93d0 ]

topic57442.html

If that’s what is meant to be 🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️
I haven’t given up and I also hope , and think about it ..
I tried a lawyer here one time , paid $20,000 and wasn’t satisfied at all ..
they didn’t do what I paid for .
I would never expect anything after I dead !
NGO’s aren’t in business to do any job I would be expected to pay for .
They don’t even know any case like mine to reference , so now I’ve asked 2
I guess. I will follow up and contact to the other four passed on to me .
Not gung-ho about the possibilities . Of them helping me ,
Their business is soliciting donations ..

Pissontheroof needs to shorten his username to simply, pissoff and posters need to stop responding to his puerile posts as he has shown time and time again that he is not here for helpful advice. He is simply seeking attention as he never acts on any of the advice given.
His ability to make any thread digress into his personal issues is astounding and I am surprised many sane posters still fall for his incessant whining cleverly hidden as a cry for help.

I’d be very surprised to find an NGO which will agree to help.
Your situation is not standard, put bluntly, why should they help if you aren’t willing to help yourself.
NGOs have mission statements, goals, objectives etc. they are (generally) in place to help people who cannot access assistance, not for people who can’t be bothered to follow clearly set out procedures.
