Probate Forms (PE)

Updated Oct 5, 2024

There are a number of province-specific forms you may need when going through the probate process.

General PE Forms

In Prince Edward Island, the Estate Court of the Supreme Court handles probate and estate administration (see court locations).

You can check with your local court for the forms they might prefer, and below you will find some of the more common PE forms:

Petition for Probate (Form 65A) - Get the probate process started
Executor's Oath (Form 65D) - Include with Petition
Proof of Will (Form 65F) - Include with Petition if there is a will
Petition for Grant of Administration (Form 65C) - Get the probate process started if there is no will
Administrator's Oath (Form 65I) - Include with Petition if there is no will
Estate Inventory (Form 65E) - Summarize estate assets
Administration Bond (Form 65M) - Tell the court you have obtained any required bond
Notice of Interest (Form 65X) - Notify heirs you have started probate
Petition to Pass Accounts (Form 65WW) - Apply to wrap things up
Affidavit Verifying Accounts (Form 65XX) - Provide the final accounting (consider attaching EstateExec Accounting Report)
Inventory on Passing Accounts (Form 65AAA) - Remaining inventory

See PE Court Forms for a more complete list of forms that may be required in certain situations.

Small PE Estate Forms

Small estates sometimes need only 1 specialized form or affidavit: see Small PE Estates.

Resealing

If the estate needs to probate real estate in another province, you may be able to reseal the original grant of probate rather than start from scratch in the secondary province: see Ancillary Probate & Resealing.
