when is grant of probate not required
We are frequently asked whether a grant of probate is always required after somebodyâs death. Very small estates under Â£15,000 do not require a grant while those assets held in joint names (such as bank accounts or property) pass to the survivor on the Deceased persons death, meaning that no grant is required.he grant is a legal document which states the Deceasedâs full name, as well as the Executors entrusted with the administration of the estate. The grant can then be presented to various financial institutions to collect the Deceasedâs assets.
