Hi,
Until the date of death, the salary should be processed to enable the employee's nominee to claim all PF benefits (PF/Pension/EDLI) if your organization is covered under PF. You should not credit the salary now. Make a full and final settlement and wait for the nominee to submit all documents, including the legal heir certificate, marriage certificate, proof of marriage, and all other supporting documents.
