Small Estates
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.
