A will I never saw

[Buffalo9555]

Your question must be rhetorical - just thinking "out loud", so to speak. There is no way any of us could know the motivations of the person(s) involved.

Got it, thank you

Apologies, i have failed to explain further. I am now a beneficiary in another will, my father. My sister is executor and i just received a Waiver of Process and Consent to Probate (in NY state.) No other document is attached.

I assume you mean your sister was nominated in your father's will to serve as executor. If you've only just received the waiver of process form, then she hasn't yet been appointed as executor.

But why would i be sent just a waiver, are they hoping i will just sign without reading the will?

No one here has insight into what hopes your sister and her attorney might have. If you want to know why they did something, ask them.

You might find it helpful to google "new york waiver of process consent to probate." The first few articles that come up should give you some insight into what's happening.
