yes you do, but maybe the heirs will forgive the loan that was made.
No the debt passes on the the heirs of the estate.
The government is not going to get their money. They will have to be satisfied that there are no assets in the estate and that no one else got paid.
You cannot put a lien on the estate of someone unless they owed you money. In this case, the deceased did not owe you any money.
Whatever you owed to the living person, you also owe to the estate should that person die. To do otherwise is fraud, and a severe disrespect for the person that died, assuming they were a personal friend who loaned you the money in the first place.
The value of the estate, which includes the debts owed to it as well as the debts the estate owes, is divided up into three parts. The amount those that owe the estate money receive is off-set against the debt. If there are more debts owed by the estate then it is worth, those owing money will have to pay it to the estate.
You father's death does not release you from your obligation. You now owe the money to the estate.

debt
One of the primary reasons to open an estate is to resolve such issues, including taxes. The estate has to pay off the debts. If the estate cannot do so, they distribute as best they can. If the court approves the distribution, the debts are ended.
No. A personal creditor of yours has no right to attach the estate for which you are the executor. However, if you are also a beneficiary of that estate the creditor can go after your portion of the distribution.
Generally, your creditor(s) may petition the probate court to commence a probate proceeding for your estate if you have left any assets. Then, the creditor can file a claim against the estate. If you die with no assets in your name, your creditors are out of luck.
nope lol but if they owe you money it is highly doubtfull they will afort to leave the country.
