If you are listed as the beneficiary in a loved ones will, you are legally entitled to be notified as to your name in the will. While there is no specific legal time limit for this, beneficiaries of a will should be notified promptly, however, probate needs to be applied for within 1 year of the date of death.
Beneficiaries are typically notified through formal communication from the executor of the estate. This usually involves a letter or email detailing their inheritance and any required actions, such as if they need to provide identification or sign documents.
Once a will has gone through probate, it becomes a public record. To find out if youre named in a will, you can contact the executor or probate court handling the estate. Additionally, executors have a legal duty to inform all named beneficiaries.
Its quite simple, actually. If you have been named as an estate beneficiary, you should have received notification via the mail from the executor about the opening of probate . If the will names you as a beneficiary, the court will not allow a petition for probate to be granted until you are notified.
When you write a letter to beneficiaries at the start of the estate management process, you create a benchmark against which the final settlement of the estate can be judged. This letter can legally protect executors and demonstrate that they have complied with both the deceaseds wishes and the letter of the law.
