<p class="MsoNormal">Intent is a factor in domicile, but I don’t think it is in residency. I think that is the distinguishing factor. One can have residences in multiple states, but only one domicile, which is where one has established a residence
<b><i>and</i></b> where intends to ultimately return, no matter how long one spends at other places and other non-domicile residences.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">So I agree that probably still CA domicile; but arguably could be a WA resident. However—as I read the interaction of RCW 11.40.020 sections (1)(b) and (2), if decedent is not domiciled in Washington, it’s sufficient to publish in the WA
county of administration. The only time a different county is required is if it’s a WA resident but the administration is not in the county of residence.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Re any potential CA debts, I think it would be a good idea to research potential liability to CA Medicaid or CA tax. The liabilities aren’t dependent on giving notice, so I’d go that way around: check on potential for liability, and if
no liability likely, probably no need to worry about notices down there.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Wendy,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m a CA attorney as well as WA. If he didn’t have any intent to move back to CA, then I’d call him a WA resident to avoid CA probate. Unless there is evidence to the contrary, that’s perfectly valid.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">However, if he did receive benefits from CA (Medicaid), I would mail them a copy of the notice to creditors. Otherwise, don’t bother.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black">I opened a probate in King County for a decedent who moved from California 30 days before his death. His sons moved him to Seattle so that he could be in hospice near their homes. He lived his
last 30 days in assisted living in Seattle where he received hospice care. <span style="background:white">For court jurisdiction over the probate, the order says he died in WA.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black;background:white">I published notice to unknown creditors in Washington. However, I am wondering if I should do notice to unknown creditors in California (publish in a paper and notify California's
Medicaid agency and dept. of revenue, if required in California). <u>Or, can I call him a resident of WA and not do notice in California?</u> Another possibility is to ask the probate court to say he is a resident in a subsequent order.</span><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

and the only heirs are his two sons who are friendly with each other.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
