Petition for Probate of Will

To begin probate, the personal representative must file the below documents with the clerk of the District Court in the county where the decedent resided (the Will can be filed by the personal representative or any individual in possession of it)[4]:

  • Will
  • Petition for Probate
  • Proof of Will (if Will is not self-proving)
  • Copy of Death Certificate

The personal representative must take an oath and fulfill any bond requirements to obtain Letters Testamentary.[5] Once granted, they must publish a notice of probate and appointment, and send a copy of the notice to interested parties.[6] The Department of Health must also receive a copy if the decedent received government medical assistance.[7]

The personal representative must file an Inventory and Report of Appraisal, and settle estate debts and taxes.[8] They must then file a Final Report and Accounting and Petition for Distribution.[9] After the court approves the Petition at a hearing, the personal representative must distribute the estate and they may file a Petition for Final Discharge to close probate.[10]
