Online Account Creation

Online Account Creation is a simple process that allows for same-day processing of new trust accounts, electronically debiting the consumer’s bank account on the next business day. This removes the reliance on the postal service and is an expedited means of establishing accounts, especially time-sensitive irrevocable accounts. The entire process is performed through the NJSFDA's secure website. It also allows users to upload important documents like a Power of Attorney and Statement of Funeral Goods and Services Selected.

In order to create online accounts, you must be either the REG 1 Administrator or have access authorized by the REG 1 Administrator of your firm. Only licensed funeral directors are permitted, by law, to write preneed contracts. For that reason, access to Online Account Creation is limited to licensed staff.

The REG 1 Administrator can authorize licensed staff by submitting a Trust Access Authorization Form to the NJSFDA Membership Services Department via fax to 732.974.8144 or email to AdminMembershipServices@njsfda.org.
