A South Carolina Small Estate Affidavit Worksheet is a legal document used to settle the estate of a deceased person. This document is used when the deceased's estate is not large enough to require formal probate, but where the deceased's assets must be distributed to the correct beneficiaries. It is available from the South Carolina Probate Court, and the required information includes the name of the deceased, the date of death, the name and address of the beneficiaries, a list of the deceased's assets and liabilities, and an affidavit of the affine's knowledge of the facts surrounding the deceased's estate. There are two types of South Carolina Small Estate Affidavit Worksheets: an Affidavit of Collection and an Affidavit of Distribution. The Affidavit of Collection is used when the deceased's estate is not large enough to require formal probate, but where the deceased's assets must be collected and distributed to the correct beneficiaries. The Affidavit of Distribution is used when the deceased's estate is larger than the Affidavit of Collection and requires formal probate.
