No. Such a declaration has to be made only in a suit filed with a prayer for declaration that the person is civilly dead. Pls consult your lawyer.

the period is seven years. after that period only a person can be presumed to be dead under law.

with the copy of the court order stating presumed to be dead you can approach LIC for the claim.
