Form Pc 556 PDF Details

In the tapestry of legal procedures following the loss of a loved one, the State of Michigan offers a streamlined method for the small estates of deceased persons to bypass the often complex and lengthy probate process. This method is encapsulated in the PC 556 form, known formally as the "Petition and Order for Assignment." This document facilitates a more direct distribution of the decedent's assets, provided these do not exceed a specific value threshold, currently set at $15,000 after adjustments for living costs. The form requires detailed information regarding the decedent's property, including real and personal property values and outstanding liens, alongside funeral and burial expenses. It also outlines who has covered these costs and the amounts that remain unpaid. Essential to this process is the listing of the decedent's surviving spouse and heirs, alongside a clear request on how the remaining assets should be distributed. This petition asserts that through a signed declaration under penalty of perjury, all information provided is accurate to the best of the petitioner's knowledge, streamlining the process for those grieving to manage estate affairs with relative ease and speed.
