Texas: County of Residence?
My aunt is 94 years old and in poor health. She resided in County "A" for 62 years with the last 3 years (until last November) in a nursing home in that county. In November, we moved her to another nursing home located in County "B" and that will probably be the county of death. She is not a registered voter nor does she have a drivers license. All her mail is sent c/o me and I reside in County "C". I am her legal representative and her address of record for Federal income taxes, pension, Social Security and medicare, investments, and banking purposes is my address in County "C". She owns no real estate.
My question is: What county would I probate her will? I would prefer County "C" for ease of administration of her estate. All family members (all heirs) would agree with any county selected. What steps do I need to take now to ensure that County "C" is the proper county for probate jurisdiction upon her death?
