How can deceased status be corrected?

mrthekid

I have a ward member who just found out that her living husband is marked as deceased in Family Search. She and the clerks haven't been able to get that corrected. Can someone point me in the right direction for this process? Thanks in advance.

@mrthekid Ask her to go to his record that shows as deceased and click the pencil icon beside the death field. On the new screen, click in the circle beside "Living". Click Save. A screen appears where she can indicate how she knows that he is living. Enter the information and click Submit. The request will go to a special team who can fix the record. Here is a link to a Help Center article that provides the details:
