Form Pc 200 PDF Details

When an individual passes away in Connecticut, dealing with their estate can involve several critical steps, one of which may include the filing of the PC-200 form, titled "Petition/Administration or Probate of Will" with the Connecticut Probate Courts. This form serves a dual purpose: it can be used to either petition for the administration of an estate without a will or for the probate of a will, essentially starting the legal process of distributing the deceased's assets according to their wishes or, in the absence of a will, under state law. It requires the petitioner to provide detailed information about the decedent, including their date of death, residence at the time of death, and the names and addresses of the surviving spouse, any heirs, and beneficiaries. For those estates where the decedent did have a will, this form is also used to request the court's approval to admit the will to probate, along with any codicils, and appoint an executor or administrator to oversee the estate settlement process. The completion of this form involves several steps, such as attaching a certified copy of the death certificate (with the Social Security number redacted), the original will, and codicils, if any, and a confidential sheet with the decedent’s Social Security number. Also, specific instructions are given for non-Connecticut resident fiduciaries and the necessity to notify all heirs and beneficiaries about the petition. It underscores the importance of adhering to Connecticut General Statutes (C.G.S.) sections 45a-287, 45a-303, and other relevant laws, showcasing the structured and comprehensive approach Connecticut takes towards estate administration and the probate process.

3)Attach a certified copy of the decedent’s death certificate (with the social security number redacted) along

with the original will and codicils, if any. Also file Confidential Sheet, PC-200CI, with the decedent’s confidential social security number.

If a beneficiary is a charity, the petitioner must also send a copy of the petition and will and codicil to the Attorney General.
