Re: waiver of probabte

If it is a waiver of notice of probate of will that you do not sign, it simply means that the executor will have to give you notice by certified mail and then give proof to the court by affidavit that it was given. If your other siblings have signed the waiver and you do not, then once the attorney files proof with the court that notice was given, the three month time period will start to run from that date for filing a will contest.

If the waiver form is a waiver of notice, this means that you already know about certain records being filed with the court and you don't need to have notice mailed to you that these records are being file. This saves on time.
