In an unsupervised probate, the appointed estate administrator manages assets, pays any debts, files required tax returns and various court documents, and distributes the estate assets.
Informal probate is an administrative proceeding, which means that it is processed by a Massachusetts Uniform Probate Code (MUPC) Magistrate instead of a judge. The court doesn't allow hearings for this process. Informal probate can be a faster process if you meet all the requirements.
Unsupervised probate, also known as independent administration, is a type of probate that does not require court supervision or approval for every action of the executor or administrator.
Typically, you have to probate the decedent's estate if you need to: Find out if the decedent's will is valid. Change the title (ownership) of real estate or personal property, such as bank accounts, stocks, or bonds, that is only in the decedent's name without any right of survivorship.
The decedent must have left an estate that consists entirely of personal property valued at $25,000 or less (excluding the value of a car). 30 days or more have passed since the decedent's death. The petitioner must be an interested person, but doesn't need to be a resident of Massachusetts.
