[WSBAPT] cred claim for decd spouse debt

[Josh Grant]

Even if DSHS paid for H’s care they are barred after 2 years.  No lien was apparently filed.

Melinda,

I think the husband's creditors were barred two years from his date of death and wife's death and probate doesn't change that (unless this is a DSHS nursing care debt).  I will be interested if others disagree.

  Forgive what is probably a pretty basic question, but my fuzzy brain needs some assistance today. 

  Husband died 3 years ago, with unpaid nursing home bill.  No subsequent probate.  Surviving spouse (wife), who would be responsible for community debt, did not pay it.  Now wife has died, and her probate is in progress.   Does creditor claims procedure of wife’s probate work also against that old nursing home debt?  

  Regards,

  Melinda
