Who serves as executor has no affect on the rights of the beneficiaries.
You can always ask your parents. If they are deceased, the executor of the will can tell you.
If the exact wording is "to my surving children", then all other children who predeceased the testator or out.
If your parents have left a will then it is the responsibility of the executor of the will to pay all of the deceased persons debts and also to collect any monies owed to the deceased person.
Yes, children have priority over the mother of the deceased. They are the descendants it get priorty second only to a surviving spouse. Even without a will the spouse will come first, then children. Parents are next, then siblings.
The court will appoint an executor.
The executor now controlling the estate has to do the transfer but if they had an executor, there is probably also a will, attorney, and a beneficiary (ies)
Next of kin, if you are not familiar with the term, just means the closest relative. If there is a surviving spouse, that is the next of kin. If there is no surviving spouse, then surviving children or surviving parents, failing that, a surviving sibling, then we go to aunts and uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews.
In the state of Illinois, if a person whose parents are deceased has been named executor of their estate, yes, all of their financial information will be given to the living executor upon request.
If your grandmother is still living, you can't. If she is deceased, the executor of the will is required to notify you if you are in the will. If there is no will, and your parents are deceased, then you should contact the probate court and/or executor.
yes he/she is allowed
That depends on whether or not they have any children, grandchildren, siblings, or if their parents are still living. If they have children, then the children are the next of kin. If they had children and the children are deceased, yet had children of their own, then the grandchildren would be the next of kin. If there are no grandchildren either, then the parents are next of kin. If the parents are deceased, then the siblings would be next of kin. If they have no children, grandchildren, siblings or surviving parents or grandparents, then the closest blood relatives would be their next of kin, such as aunts and uncles, cousins, etc. in that order.
The children are not directly responsible in Pennsylvania. The estate is responsible to settle all the debts. Until these have been paid, the children are not entitled to receive anything.
