What is the name of your state? MN
My father in laws estate has been in probate for over a year and has been held up for a variety of reasons. I have received the final accounting of his estate but no accounting for the trust. He did have a pour over will. The para legal for the probate attorney called me today to ask for my social secuirty number so she could file a form K-1 beneficiary share of income, could this be an indication that they are getting close to distribution? Every time I ask a question I think I have supplied sufficient info but I always seem to leave out something, so if anymore info is needed I'm more than willing to supply it HaHa

A: You are certainly closer than you were a year ago.

LOL...thank you so much for the words of encouragement I needed that.

 

[seniorjudge]

Lawyers and judges make probate as irritating and complex as possible so as to insure that they will have work.

While SJ is correct, to the question you asked, no. The asking for your social security number may only be a requirement for a K-1 you will receive from the trust. It may have nothing directly to do with the estate.

I agree and a totally inept and misguided executor doesn't help matters either.

Alas, most executors are inept and misguided.
