As a private investigator who specializes in locating missing heirs from cases across the country and around the world, the answer is...it depends. The rules on this issue vary from state to state. Since probate is a state-by-state area of law, there is no uniformity.
For example, in Michigan, three years after the personal representative or trustee has deposited money for a missing heir with the county treasurer, the court can grant another heir's request to redistribute the money. If nobody has claimed the money though, the missing heir can still claim it for however long with no statute of limitations.
In Ohio, the missing heir has five years after the administrator or trustee deposits the money with the county. After five years, the money belongs to the county. Some counties strictly enforce this five year rule while others have paid our missing heir clients twenty or thirty years after the fact.
Ohio and Michigan are just two examples. If you would like more information, feel free to e-mail me at mzwick@assets-international.com, call me at 248-557-4960 or visit our website at www.assets-international.com.

You have 30 days to file a claim. You must have a police report of what missing and the date it happen or when you noticed something
The word "Inheritance" is 11 letters long.
It depends on whether you are a legal heir. If he left a will and you are named in it, you will receive your inheritance when the estate is settled. How long this takes varies, but it shouldn't be terribly long unless there's some kind of legal challenge. If he died without a will, the legal process takes longer and the division of the estate will be settled by the court. A person who dies without a will dies "intestate", and the closest living relatives are heir(s). Was your father married? If so, his spouse would be his heir over his children in an intestate situation.
Jake Wexler's secret in "The Westing Game" was that he was living under a false identity. He was actually Samuel Westing's long-lost son, Barney Northrup. He was participating in the inheritance scheme in order to win the game and claim his rightful inheritance.
In "claim" it is a long a, as in clay, bray, bay.
The time limit for disclaiming an inheritance is typically nine months after the death of the person leaving the inheritance.
Yes. Step children have no right to inheritance unless they were legally adopted. In most states, if legally adopted, they have rights of inheritance only if they are minors. An adult child can be disinherited as long as it is done properly by will. In an intestate estate, a legally adopted child is an heir at law. You can check the laws of intestacy for your state at the related question link provided below.
The way this question is worded implies you want to manipulate the inheritance to avoid including it in your bankruptcy. If you become an heir to land or any property (cash, motor vehicle, etc.) prior to filing or while you are in bankruptcy, or within 180 days after discharge, you must disclose the inheritance to the trustee and the court, even if you have not actually received the property. There is no "waiting."
ten days. period.
It has a long A sound (ay) from the AI pair. It rhymes with aim and name.
how long does it claim for salary loan sss
Not long at all. If you were married the last few minutes of 2009, then you can claim the entire year.
