Question

According to which day do we visit the grave: the day of burial or the day of death?

Answer

Every year on the day of death, and in the first year, some say that if there is a two-day difference, one visits on the day of burial, and if there is a one-day difference, one visits on the day of death. However, according to Halacha, in any case, one visits on the day of death.
