What is a Letter of authorization on estate?

The Letters will be issued by the probate court or register once the Personal Representative qualifies by filing an Acceptance of Appointment and a bond if bond is required.
Note: Virginia does not issue “letters testamentary”. A qualification certificate stamped with the seal of the Court is issued showing that an executor or administrator has been qualified, posted bond and has authority to act on behalf of the estate.
