How Long to Settle an Estate in New York? The short answer: from 7 months to 3 years. Typically 9 months. Estate settlement (also known as estate administration) is the phase during which you, as the court-appointed executor, must collect the estate assets, organize and pays debts, and file all final taxes.
In Connecticut, creditors have up to 2 years from the date of death to notify the estate of any debt claims, or until the normal statute of limitations on the debt would expire, whichever comes sooner (see CT Gen Stat 45a-375).
While the probate process in New York typically takes between 9-18 months, it can take longer or shorter depending on a variety of factors.
Typically New York probate takes 7 to 9 months, but can last a year or more, depending on the complexity of the estate.
In New York state, a will only has to be submitted to probate if the decedents remaining assets are worth $30,000 or more. Such assets do not include any property or funds that transferred via pay on death accounts, in trust for (ITF) accounts, or joint ownership, as these automatically bypass the probate process.
