Pennsylvania Checklist-Decedent Estate is a comprehensive list of steps to be taken in order to properly administer the estate of a deceased person in the state of Pennsylvania. This includes identifying the decedent's assets, notifying creditors and other parties of the death, preparing legal documents such as a will, and establishing a probate estate. The checklist also covers the appointment of an executor or administrator, obtaining a tax identification number, filing taxes, paying debts, and distributing assets. There are two types of Pennsylvania Checklist-Decedent Estate: Small Estate Checklist and Full Estate Checklist. The Small Estate Checklist is used when the decedent's estate is valued at less than $50,000, while the Full Estate Checklist is used when the estate is valued at more than $50,000.
