As Viki says, if the person dies before you are discharged from BR then you would have to declare the inheritance even if you don't become aware of it until after discharge.
The more I have to do with humans the more I think that the world would be a better place if it was run by animals.
Last IPA payment made on 28th June 2010 and I'm now looking forward to getting married in September 2012 - I'm proof that you can go BR and come out the other side.

If the family member dies the day after discharge, then the inheritance will come to you.
