In a probate proceeding, the executor named in the will files a petition in Surrogate's Court along with the original of your will. The petition will include the date of death, beneficiaries named in the will, heirs-at-law in case the will is invalid, and an estimate of the value of the estate.
Since the executor is personally liable to creditors if he distributes assets before 7 months have elapsed from his appointment, the minimum time it takes to complete probate is 7 months from the time the will is admitted to probate, although we sometimes see estates stay opened for two years or more.
Filing for Administration The closest distributee files a copy of the paid funeral bill, a certified copy of the death certificate with the Petition for Letters of Administration and other supporting documents in the Surrogate's Court in the county where the Decedent had their primary residence.
