You're not expected to know this. These questions help you compare and avoid surprises.
“Can I see your General Price List?”
Federal law (FTC Funeral Rule) requires them to give you itemized pricing. You have every right to ask.
“Do you accept insurance assignment?”
This means they bill the insurance company directly. You don't pay thousands upfront and wait to be reimbursed.
“What's included vs. what's extra?”
Packages may not include everything. Ask about the casket, embalming, transportation, facility fees, and death certificate copies.
Know Your Rights
The FTC Funeral Rule protects you. Every funeral home must provide an itemized General Price List if you ask — in person or over the phone. You are never required to buy a package and can choose services individually. You also have the right to use a casket purchased elsewhere.

“Yesterday we used AIFS for my Hindu sister. We all travelled from out of state to New Jersey. AIFS made our job very smooth, from my first call to them, creating a webpage (see Obituaries dated Nov 2, 2024 Niranjana Amin on their website), to dealing with insurances, moving the deceased, till the death certificate. Alex managed all communications and helped through out. She was very pleasant and considerate. Overall I would highly recommend AIFS to all desis.”

“On April 1, we organized the cremation for our daughter. Gina and Alex are wonderful people; kind, patient, respectful and clear and thoughtful in all communication. They did a fantastic job for us and we're glad we met them at such a time of need. Their funeral home is clean, well-setup and easy to access. They had everything organized as we requested and gave us privacy where needed. The cremation site at Franklin Memorial is a large green field, with clean facilities and respectful staff. Everything we wanted was catered for and Alex and Gina's knowledge and experience working with Indian families is evident. Thank you both!”
