Under Washington probate law, any person who has the deceased person's will must turn it over either to the probate court or to the personal representative within 30 days of finding out about the death.

The asset distribution to the descendants of a deceased owner of an estate is determined during the estate planning process. In this process, the owner of the estate identifies all their heirs who are due to receive a portion of the inheritance. The owner lists all the assets that he/she owns.
Probate assets that make up the deceased person's estate are distributed to the Will's beneficiaries and/or the decedent's heirs. Once this step is complete, then the estate and the probate process can formally close.
If distributions are made from a trust or estate to beneficiaries, it will often shift the burden of income tax to the individuals receiving the distributions. Income will be reported on a K-1 from the trust or estate issued in the name of the beneficiary in proportion to their share of the distribution made.
