Is probate necessary when there is only one beneficiary?
Показать описание
And the answer is it depends. If the beneficiary is the surviving spouse, then the surviving spouse may do what's called a spousal set aside procedure, which is a short form of probate.
If the beneficiary is not the surviving spouse but is an adult child or other family member, then it's likely that a probate case will be required.
If the beneficiary is the surviving child who is not yet an adult, meaning the beneficiary is a minor child under the age of18, then a probate case is definitely required.
