[WSBARP] Joint probate question

[Melinda]

Really feel I should know this, but somehow not feeling sure, so once again I’m leaning on you wonderful colleagues  ;)  

Wife died recently, with valid Will.  Husband predeceased (last year) - no Will, no CPA. No probate.  

Therefore I am assuming I need to do a joint probate now.  True?

In petition for joint probate, is it necessary to:
	- plead  RCW 11.04.015(1)(a) Descent and distribution of community property from predeceased husband to surviving wife?
	- request Letters Testamentary for testate wife, and also Letters Admin for intestate husband?  

Thanks so much!
