Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Georgia

Letter of no administration necessary.

My mother was a cosigner on my loan. She passed in 2000 without a will she didn't own anything else, nor did she leave any bills unpaid. Where would I file the petition if she lived in another county in GA, but the home we have together is not in the county where she passed,can I decide where she considered her home to be. I have downloaded the probate petition to fill out. But if I can't find all my sibling because of drug problems can I write a letter stating i've exhaused all my resources? Are there any sites to help me fill out this petition because I am unable to pay a attorney @ this time? thanks.

Re: Letter of no administration necessary.

File the petition to administer the estate in the county of her residence at the time of her death. However, you may not even need to file a petition. This is a bit complicated, so consult with a local attorney for more information.
