What happens to the dependents of a Greek Golden Visa if the applicant passes away?
About a year ago, my father died. He supplied us with a home in Athens and we were his dependents as part of his Golden Visa application. However, he has been gone awhile now, but what happens to our visas? Do we have to adjust something on our documentation to maintain our Golden Visa status? And what should we do with the Athens home, which is still in his name?

Following to a recent amendment of Greek Immigration Law, beneficiaries of the right of entry and the permanent resident permit for property owners, which shall be renewed every five years, include third-country citizens who are adults and who fully and legally own real estate property in Greece, the minimum objective (tax) value of which is 250,000. It can be acquired through intestate succession, will or parental concession. So for the property in yours father's name you have first to check if your father has left a testimony and in any case to proceed to acceptance of inheritance. Afterwards, and as property owner regarding your residence permits status there are some issues to be arranged but you have to advise a lawyer for coordination of the subject.
