A small estate affidavit is a probate alternative that can be used when decedent's probate property is less than $100,000 and does not include any real property (such as a home or land). The decedent's successor can collect the decedent's property using the affidavit, including bank accounts and insurance policies.
A small estate affidavit may be used if: the entire value of the estate is under $100,000, there is no real property, at least 30 days have passed since the death, and. no application for appointment of personal representative has been filed.
The creditor first files a Statement of Claim in the probate matter for the decedent, or the person who died. If a claim is filed and it is timely, the court will not close the matter until the claim has been satisfied or the personal representative shows that funds are not sufficient to cover it.
Your spouse will inherit all of your intestate property if you die without descendants, or if all surviving descendants are from you and your surviving spouse. If you have a spouse and no descendants, your spouse will inherit everything.
