After probate are heirs responsible for future bills received?
To begin with, the term "After probate" has no meaning for a question like this. "Probate" means the probate of the will to begin the administration of the estate. Debts presented after admission of the will to probate are payable. The real question is whether heirs are responsible for bills received after conclusion of administration of the estate and distribution made to the heirs or beneficiaries. It is possible, depending on the probate laws of the state where probate is. In New Jersey for example, heirs or beneficiaries have to sign a document acknowledging the amount of money they received and promising that if legitimate debts come to light later on, they will return a proportionate share of their inheritance. This is to recognize that legitimate debts of the decedent that would have been paid prior to distribution to the heirs and the heirs would have received a proportionately smaller share of the estate. So although they may have to return some money, they are not really losing any. No heirs are responsible to return more than their proportionate share or to pay more than they received.
