<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I’ve dealt with this a few times. The EIN stays the same. Ask for a check made payable to the estate. New PR can set up an estate bank account at a financial institution of their choice with their own Letters
T. I didn’t file the tax returns, but I believe the CPA just sent in a copy of the new PR’s Letters T with the next tax return.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I represent the successor PR of an estate where the first PR was removed by court order after a later-dated will was admitted to probate. The first PR is to turn over all estate assets, papers, accounting,
etc. within 7 days of the court order revoking her letters testamentary. A colleague suggested I have the successor PR obtain a new EIN for the estate and open a new estate bank account. I didn’t think you could have two EINs for a single estate. Am I missing
something? Is there a special procedure I should be following?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
