Maine Testate (With A Will) Application is a legal process where an individual transfers their assets after death according to the instructions in their last will and testament. After the individual's death, the Executor or Personal Representative is responsible for submitting the Maine Testate (With A Will) Application to the appropriate probate court. The application includes the full name and address of the deceased, the names and addresses of the Executor/Personal Representative and any beneficiaries, the date and place of death, the terms of the will, and a list of assets and liabilities. If the application is approved, the court will issue Letters Testamentary, which authorizes the Executor/Personal Representative to administer the estate during the probate process. There are two types of Maine Testate (With A Will) Applications; Form P-22 for Small Estates and Form P-21 for Regular Estates. Form P-22 is to be used for estates that have a gross value of assets up to $50,000, while Form P-21 is to be used for estates with a gross value of assets greater than $50,000.
