Double check that you have both the correct form name and the correct form ID.

Step 2 - Complete the Document

Fill out all relevant fields in Form pbgc91pz, take a break, and then review. Probate and estate settlement processes in AZ are long enough to begin with, and making a silly error can push your timeline even farther back. No thank you!

Step 3 - Have Form pbgc91pz witnessed or notarized (if required)

Step 4 - Submit Procedures: Regarding Proof By Depository Of Restricted Account (Only If Ordered By The Court) to the relevant office

This is most often the local probate court where the decedent (person who passed away) is domiciled (permanently resides) or the institution involved with this particular form (e.g. a bank). Some offices allow you to submit forms online, other’s don’t, and we while we generally recommend going in-person to expedite the process, sometimes that simply isn’t an option.

It’s also a generally good idea to establish a positive working relationship with any probate clerk (unfortunately there’s enough people & process out there making things more difficult and unnecessarily confusing for them), so a best practice is to simply ask the probate clerk proactively exactly how and where they’d prefer you to submit all forms.

Different probate forms or processes can require different deadlines or response times for completing the appropriate form.

While some steps in the process are bound to specific deadlines (like petitioning for probate, having to submit an inventory of assets, or filing applicable notices to creditors and beneficiaries), many probate forms or processes are not tied to a specific deadline since the scope of work can vary based on situational factors or requirements involved.

Either way, there are a bunch of practical reasons why personal representatives should work to complete each step as thoroughly and quickly as possible when completing probate in Arizona.

5 reasons you should submit pbgc91pz as quickly as possible:

1. The sooner you begin, the faster Arizona can allow heirs and beneficiaries to get their share of assets subject to probate. Acting promptly can also decrease the costs & overall mental fatigue through an otherwise burdensome process.

2. In general, creditors of an estate usually have around 3-6 months from the time you file notice to creditors to file any claims for debt against the deceased’s assets. If they don’t, then that debt is forfeited (and more importantly, the executor won’t be held personally responsible). So doing this sooner means you have a better idea of who is owed what and ensures you won’t get a surprise collector months later.

3. Not filing a will within 30 days (on average) could mean that the probate process proceeds according to intestate laws (laws that govern what happens to someone's stuff without a will) or is subject to unnecessary supervision by the probate court. And if you aren't directly related to the deceased (a.k.a. next of kin), this could also mean you lose your inheritance.

4. It’s important to file any necessary state tax returns on behalf of the deceased or estate by the following tax season in Arizona. If you don’t, you could owe penalties and interest. This also includes any necessary federal tax returns such as Forms 1040, 1041, or even a Form 706 estate tax return.

5. If a house in the State of Arizona is left empty (or abandoned) for a while, insurance can get dicey. For example, if the house burns down and no one has been there for a year, an insurance company may get out of paying your claim.

If you’re not using Atticus to get specific forms, deadlines, and timelines for Arizona probate, then try and stay as organized as possible, pay close attention to the dates mentioned in any correspondence you have with the State’s government officials, call the local Arizona probate clerk or court for exact answers regarding Form pbgc91pz, and when in doubt— consult a qualified trust & estates lawyer for that area.

Self-Service Center PROCEDURES REGARDING PROOF BY DEPOSITORY OF RESTRICTED ACCOUNT (GUARDIANSHIP OR CONSERVATORSHIP) 1. WHEN YOU NEED A PROOF BY DEPOSITORY: If you are a conservator of a ward’s money, or a guardian and the estate has less than $5,000, you might have asked the Judge/Commissioner to order that some or all of the assets be restricted. If the Judge/Commissioner granted the restriction, you need to prove to the Judge/Commissioner that you obeyed the Order and had the assets placed in a restricted account. This court document is called the PROOF OF RESTRICTED ACCOUNT. 2. WHEN AND HOW TO GET A “PROOF OF RESTRICTED ACCOUNT”: Immediately after the Judge/Commissioner orders the restriction, take the money to a bank or other financial institution and inform the manager or staff that: • You are a conservator under court order. Bring with you a certified copy of the LETTERS OF APPOINTMENT. • You want the money placed in a restricted account as stipulated by the ORDER. Bring a copy of the ORDER authorizing the restriction. There are certain terms in the ORDER you and the financial institution need to obey. • After the money is deposited in a restricted account, have the bank or financial institution manager sign the PROOF OF RESTRICTED ACCOUNT, which must also be notarized. Keep the original to give it to the court. 3. FILING THE PROOF BY DEPOSITORY: After the PROOF OF RESTRICTED ACCOUNT is signed and notarized, file the original with the Clerk of the Court, Probate Registrar. You should also send a copy to Probate Court Administration. Note: You should also send a copy to the office of the Judge/Commissioner who signed the Order about the restricted account. 4. WHAT ABOUT THE BOND: Once the account is established and the PROOF OF RESTRICTED ACCOUNT is filed, you might qualify to have the bond reduced or dissolved, depending on the estate and what the ORDER said.
