This summer, folks visiting HeirAdvance.com have asked our Probate & Trust Loan Editor a lot of questions. Here are some of the more interesting and pertinent queries answered by The Editor:
Are all the states in the US the same when it comes to Probate laws and Probate Cash Advances?
No. Probate laws may be different from state to state.  Rules and regulations may differ.  For example, the time period that potential creditors have to come forward varies from state to state.
Do I have to pay Federal taxes on my Inheritance?
If federal Inheritance taxes are due, either the Estate or the individual Heir will be responsible.
Can the Estate and/or I avoid Inheritance Taxes altogether?
That depends upon the total value of the Estate and whether or not there was any income coming to the deceased from these assets.
If my Inheritance is in a Trust, can the Trust avoid Inheritance or “Death” Taxes?
No. Trust Inheritance taxes, if owed, must be paid.
Are there any states where there is no tax at all on one’s Inheritance?
Yes. But federal Inheritance taxes may still be applicable.
If I pass away with no Will and have no children, are all my assets automatically inherited by my wife?
That would depend on circumstances and state Inheritance law, as well as other variables.
Will a bank, or my credit union, give me a loan based on my Inheritance, if I’m an Heir of an Estate in Probate? 

No it’s too risky for them.  No traditional lender will provide a Probate Cash Advance or Inheritance Loan.

If my siblings and I have an Inheritance coming to us in the form of a house and property only, with no cash, can we still apply for a Probate Loan?
Generally yes, depending on the value of the Estate property, whether or not its’ for sale, and it’s salability.
If my Inheritance has no liquid assets, but has a house in the Estate, with a lot of debt, can I still get a Probate Loan?
Probably not.
If I intend to leave my wife and kids an Inheritance, would it be to their benefit if I set up a Trust?
Yes.  Avoiding the Probate process could save some Inheritance costs and length of time for Trust asset distribution.
Can I get an Inheritance Loan now, if Probate has not yet started, but we expect it will in a few weeks?
No, but once Probate is open, we can probably help with a Probate Cash Advance or Inheritance Loan of some kind.
Can I apply for an Inheritance Loan if I am coming into an Inheritance from my dad but there is no property and no plan to begin Probate at all?
No.  The only way we can provide an Inheritance Advance is if the Estate is in Probate or Trust.
During Probate, if one of the Heirs challenges the Will, does that prevent me from applying for an Estate Loan, or Inheritance Cash Advance?
Not necessarily.  It depends on what the Will challenges are.
Can I get my entire Inheritance in advance as a Trust or Probate Loan?
No.  We can advance you an Inheritance Loan which is a percentage of the total Inheritance coming to you.
Is the time period for Estate Inheritance distribution the same in all states?
No, Probate laws vary from state to state.  The length of time you must wait for Probate to distribute to get your Inheritance varies by state.
Does Heir Advance Co. provide Inheritance Loans or Trust Advances in Canada?
Yes, we do provide Probate Loans and Trust Fund Advances for Heirs of Estates in Canada.
If my Inheritance is in the UK, can I get a Trust or Probate Advance?
No, we do not provide Trust Loans or Probate Cash Advances for Heirs of Estates  in the United Kingdom.  Your Inheritance must be a part of an Estate in America or Canada.
If I refer another Heir from the same Estate my Inheritance is coming from, can I get a Tell-a-Friend commission?  If so, how much?
Yes, if you refer an Heir from the same Estate, and he or she gets a Probate Loan or Trust Advance from Heir Advance, you will receive a standard Tell-a-Friend fee.  How much depends upon the size of the other Heir’s Inheritance Loan.
