Happy Friday Listmates - 

 

I have my first PC that would qualify for a Small Estate Affidavit but upon reading up, I am curious as to whether or not it would work.  Decedent is father to two adult children, spouse preceded him in death long ago, has no bills as he paid cash for everything. Only asset, as he lived with one of his two children, is a savings account that has approximately $35,000.   Everything that I am reading that relates to bank accounts is for account value of $2,500 or less. 

 

Am I missing something or will they be required to get letters of administration because of the higher value?

 

Thank you for the guidance. 

 

Brent
