A Letter of Authority refers to the document (or Letter) that grants the personal representative authority to act on behalf of the estate of the person that died. Probate refers to the court procedure by which a decedent's estate gets administered after death.
(B)(1) Every administrator and executor, within six months after appointment, shall render a final and distributive account of the administrator's or executor's administration of the estate unless one or more of the following circumstances apply: (a) An Ohio estate tax return must be filed for the estate.
Upon the death of a resident of this state who dies intestate, letters of administration of the decedent's estate shall be granted by the probate court of the county in which the decedent was a resident at the time of death.
To obtain your Ohio Certificate of Authority, you will submit an Application for Certificate of Authority, along with required certificates or certified copies from your home state. You will need to appoint a registered agent in order for your filing to be approved.
The letter of authority (J170) must be obtained from the Office of the Master of the High Court or a Magistrates Court and can take up to 120 days to be issued. It is usually valid for up to 12 months.
