[WSBAPT] Probate in WA with TX death certificate

[Heather deVrieze]

For the purpose of starting the probate I don’t think the residence address matters a bit, but . . . if there are issues of domicile for taxes, or whether there needs to be probate anywhere else, or where the notice to creditors should be published, it might matter.

If it is wrong, I would try to get it corrected, but wouldn’t hold up the probate.

Subject: [WSBAPT] Probate in WA with TX death certificate

Hi, my client's father (who was a resident of WA) was visiting his son in TX and passed away in TX. All his properties are in WA. HOWEVER, the death certificate has his son's address in TX as his residence address.

We are trying to probate his estate in WA. Do you think I need to get the death certificate corrected?

Thanks,
