My husband (57) died 9 weeks ago.
we have wills where everything was left to me.
we have wills where everything was left to me.
He has a SIPP, death in service and old pension. His only asset in his name is his car.
As far as I understand the only thing in his ‘estate’ would be the car as everything else is outside the estate. Would I need to do probate ?
He’s left some credit card debt - can they insist on payment from the money outside the estate ?

It does not sound like probate is needed. How much is the car worth, and how big is the debt.

It’s a kit car so possibly 20k debt £25k
morally I feel I should pay as I’ve got a large pot of money with everything included but people are telling me not too as his estate hasn’t got the funds.Sealed pot challenge 822

Normally the recommendation is not to administer an insolvent estate, but it is impossible not to when you have a £20k car to dispose of one way or another.You may of cause simply pay it all off if you feel it is the right thing to do.2 -
Is there a property involved?
