FAQ
Who may become a voluntary administrator? A. If the decedent died without a Will, the right to act as voluntary administrator is given first to the spouse and then, in order of preference, to an adult child or grandchild, parent, brother or sister, niece or nephew or aunt or uncle of the decedent.
How to Submit a Claim A copy of the death certificate. Proof of Address or Ownership connecting the owner to the address or funds. Letters of Authority (Testamentary/Administration) issued by the court certifying your appointment, dated within the last six months, or a Small Estates Affidavit and Table of Heirs.
The process begins by filing an affidavit with the Surrogate's Court in the county where the deceased lived. The person filing the affidavit, known as the “voluntary administrator,” is often a close relative or the primary beneficiary of the estate.
You can use this program if: If the decedent (the person who died) had $50,000 or less in personal property. If the decedent owned real property, he/she owned it jointly with someone else and you don't plan to sell the real estate.
New York law establishes an order of priority for appointing an administrator. The surviving spouse has the first priority, followed by any children, grandchildren, parents, brothers and sisters, nieces and nephews, and other relatives.
If your petition is granted, you will receive letters of administration from the Queens County Surrogate's Court. These letters give you the legal authority to administer the decedent's estate, including managing their assets, paying their debts, and distributing their property to heirs.
A Letter of Administration is a legal document that grants authority to an individual or individuals to manage the financial affairs and assets of someone who has died without a will. This document is issued by the court when there is no executor named in the decedent's will if one exists.
If you live in NYC or the surrounding counties listed below, it is necessary that you personally appear in Court to file your Letters of Administration request. If you live outside of NYC, you have the option to call the Court or electronically file your Letters of Administration request.
