Law / In Poland, are debts passed on to next of kin when a parent dies? [13]

I would have thought that's why people pay taxes, to have support from the government when its time to rely upon them. Pre EU I might understand, but not now.

So a parent who barely supported her kids or an absent father.... They can sue kids... ?

I guess its like anyone suing anyone else for a reason... Its down to the courts to decide...

These must be old communist draconian laws that need to be updated by the new and improved polish EU government

Your replies are very much appreciated.

Thanks for responding...

How about an absent parent? You havent seen him (or her) for many years and have no idea if they are alive or dead?

You dont put in a rejection (still can't believed that law) because you don't know anything about them and suddenly get a bill to pay their massive debt.

One other question... A parent in Poland becomes Ill. Needs to remain in a care home and has no insurance... Again.... The NOK expected to pay for the bills? / part bills?

Many Thanks..

My polish wife has just learnt that any debts her mother has when she dies will be passed down to her and her sister...
Even though they haven't signed or been given any notice or documents of any type of debt, while the loans were being approved.

Apparently even when your parents can't pay a loan and they are alive, it comes back to the NOK to pay..

If this is so, how can it be? What if you haven't seen or heard from a parent for 30 odd years?

Or that absent father you never met?

you've never agreed to pay their debt with the lender and didn't even known they took a loan out.

I really don't think this is accurate.

Can anyone shine a light in this topic please?
