You must submit from a close living relative to request temple ordinances for a friend to whom you are unrelated.

A close living relative is an undivorced spouse (the spouse to whom the individual was married at the time of death), an adult child, a parent, a brother, or a sister…     

Before you start

Make sure that you have signed, written permission from one of your friend's close living relatives.

If your deceased friend has no close living relatives that can provide written permission, then a request cannot be granted.  For more information please see https://www.familysearch.org/help/helpcenter/article/can-i-request-proxy-temple-ordinances-for-a-friend
