The fifth piece isn't a document.
Your end-of-life wishes — funeral vibes, memorial preferences, messages for the people you love — aren't a legal PDF. They change as your life does. That's why they live in the I'M DEAD app: plan your legacy, keep it current, and it reaches your people when the time comes.
The step-by-step walkthrough

About you
Your name, address, date of birth, and province — the details that make your documents province-correct.

Your family
Spouse or partner, children, and anyone you want named as a guardian.
- 3
Your estate
Your executor, specific gifts, and how the rest of your estate is divided.
- 4
Your arrangements
Funeral and burial or cremation preferences, and your powers of attorney.

Making it legal: sign & witness
Your documents are only legal once you print them and sign them according to your province's rules. Downloading a PDF is not the finish line — signing it correctly is.
Most provinces require two adult witnesses, present together while you sign, who aren't named as beneficiaries. The exact rules vary by province — your download includes signing instructions for your specific province, and each province page covers the specifics in more detail.
We don't bury this. It's the single most important step, so we put it front and center.
Signing rules vary by province — pick yours:
Quebec — not supported (civil law is a different system).
Including Yukon, Northwest Territories, and Nunavut — which most online will platforms don't serve.
What we're not
- We're not a law firm. We don't give legal advice about your specific situation.
- Complex estates need a lawyer. Trusts, disinheriting someone, blended-family situations, or a business you want to pass on are outside what a self-guided tool like this can safely handle — talk to an estate lawyer instead.
- We don't support Quebec. Quebec follows civil law, not common law — it's effectively a different legal system for wills, so we don't offer it yet.
Updating later
Life changes, and your documents should keep up. Updates to your account are free and unlimited — go back in, change what's different, and generate a fresh PDF.
One thing to know: editing your account doesn't re-execute your signed document. If you make a change after signing, you need to print, sign, and witness the new version too.
