Finding out about the process of registering a death and the probate process is not something that many people deal with on a regular basis, unless of course they are professionals in the field.Unfortunately I recently had to undertake this task and was shocked by the fees that can be charged by a professional to in effect collate information that I would have to find and supply to them.I looked for alternatives and found “youcandoprobate” I purchased the package and was pleasantly surprised with how easy it was to use and followed the guide which helped steer me in the right direction to find the information I required to input. However one of the biggest surprises was when nearing the end of the process the tool established that the estate was over the threshold to qualify for IHT205 and that I would have to now go through the IHT400 documents. This, one may thing would be an annoyance having paid for the software licence and followed the process that far and to find that I could not complete. However this has been considered by the makers and as long as you have not generated the documents you are able to obtain a refund in line with their T’s & C’s.I still have to follow the IHT400 process but having used the “youcandoprobate” software I feel that this will be a far less daunting task than I would have thought as it has helped me to better understand the process and has helped me collate a lot of information.I would highly recommend this package to anyone in the unfortunate position of having to wind up an estate.
