1. Will credit card debt become a burden after children die?
Credit card arrears will not bring trouble to family members, because credit cards are personal limits based on personal credit status. After the death of the cardholder, the bank will first deduct the relevant arrears from the repayment account of the deceased. If the balance of the account is insufficient, the bank can take legal proceedings, and the court will enforce the personal property under the name of the deceased and the part of the common property belonging to the deceased to repay the arrears. In addition, if the family inherits the deceased's estate, it needs to repay the debts for the deceased, but it can bear the responsibility for repayment within the scope of inheriting the estate. If the family renounces the right of inheritance, there is no need to pay off debts for the deceased.

Citizens' overdue negative records are no longer accompanied by life. If they can repay in full and on time within five years, they will be able to repay their credit.
