Probate timelines after request for will

propertyhunter

**UPDATE**
The seller received email notification of grant of probate today, with the documents expected within 5 working days.
So this was 3 weeks after they were asked to send the will over to the probate office - much less than the anticipated 8 weeks. I should mention that the estate was simple, in the sense that the estate consisted of a house and savings, but IHT was still due.

Overall, it was ~11 weeks since the application was submitted.
