If you are appointed an executor/trustee by a Will, the general rule is that you will not be entitled to be paid for the time you spend in administering the estate. You can however recover your reasonable expenses.
How Long Does Probate Take in Vermont? The timeline from when probate is opened to when it is closed will vary based on many factors. You can expect a minimum of four to five months, since creditors are given this amount of time to file a claim.
The state charges a flat rate of 16%. Lets say your total estate is worth $7.25 million. The first $5 million is exempt, leaving a taxable estate of $2.25 million. That money is taxed at a rate of 16%, giving you a total estate tax burden of $360,000 in Vermont.
Go to the Probate Division in the county where the decedent lived at the time of death. The court will appoint the executor. It is the executors job to locate and gather all of the assets, and then pay debts and distribute property according to the terms of a will. The probate court will supervise this process.
Estates are subject to a 16% tax on the value of assets exceeding the exemption amount. For example, a Vermont resident dies in 2019 with a taxable estate of $3,750,000, the Vermont estate tax would be $160,000, or 16% of $1,000,000.

Before the estate is distributed, costs such as funeral, debts, legal fees, executors expenses and inheritance tax (if applicable) are paid. The balance is then paid out to the beneficiaries of the will/intestacy. As a beneficiary, you do not usually incur costs personally.
Do All Estates Have to Go Through Probate in Vermont? Most estates in Vermont will need to go through probate. Unless they are included in a living trust, they will need to go through a legal process to have the assets transferred to the heirs.
Living trusts In Vermont, you can make a living trust to avoid probate for virtually any asset you own -- real estate, bank accounts, vehicles, and so on. You need to create a trust document (its similar to a will), naming someone to take over as trustee after your death (called a successor trustee).
Fill out a Petition to Open Decedents Estate that you can file with the probate court. This is the form you need to start the probate process after someone has died. The decedent is the person who died. You can find more information about the probate process on our website or on the Vermont Judiciary website.
If you are named in someones will as an executor, you may have to apply for probate. This is a legal document which gives you the authority to share out the estate of the person who has died according to the instructions in the will. You do not always need probate to be able to deal with the estate.
