Generally, filing for probate must happen within six months after the date of death. In Kansas, one must file state and federal death tax returns no later than nine months after the date of death.
The duration of probate proceedings can vary depending on various factors such as the size and complexity of the estate, any disputes among beneficiaries or creditors, and whether or not a will was left behind. In Kansas City, the average time for completing probate is typically around 6 to 9 months.
Kansas residents can circumvent probate by designating beneficiaries on financial accounts such as retirement accounts, life insurance policies, and even some bank accounts. These designations allow the assets to pass directly to your named beneficiaries, sidestepping the probate process entirely.
That being said, it is never a good idea to delay the inevitable. California Probate Code section 8001 specifies that the executor has 30 days after the decedents date of death and after learning they are the nominated executor to petition the court for administration of the estate.
When is Probate Necessary? Assets in the Deceaseds Name Only: If someone owned assets solely in their name, probate is usually required to transfer them. Estates Over $75,000: If the estate is worth more than $75,000, Kansas law typically requires probate.
