I am so near to finally completing the C1 form. Thanks to the posts on here and Buddy9 I am so grateful for everyone's input. 
I have one final niggle which I think will cause problems, if not now, then in the future. My mother holds a small amount of shares and with one company her shareholder name is not the same as in her Will. Should I add her 'extra' name in the C1 form? Thanks in advance.

If it is only an investment that has a different name then you could do as suggested in the C3 guidance - on page 2 para 1 box enter both names 

Such as Jean Kettle otherwise known as Jean Keatley 

or

Agnes Mary McDougall or Murray

There is also a utility bill that has my mother's first name different, not that she was ever known by that name but it seems the 'aquired' name could be because they thought her first name was a shortened version of her first name. Her birth certificate shows the shorter name! 

Yes, I shall add in that name to the page and paragraph suggested thanks.

Also I am using C2 additional inventory page but after filling it out online I see it has 12/12 at the bottom!! Have I overlooked an updated version or will this be okay? Forgive me for these endless questions. I can see why people use lawyers during this stressful time! Thanks in advance and for all your previous help Buddy9. Much appreciated.🙂

12/12 looks like an HMRC reference number on the current version.

Hi everyone. I'd just like to say thank you Buddy 9 for all your help. So very grateful to you for all your helpful replies. Couldn't have done this without your dedicated support. You are worth your weight in gold! My Confirmation was passed today. Just waiting for certificates in the post now!
This is a first class site.
One minute issue, which thankfully didn't result in my application going back into the system (was rectified online), was that I mentioned the lawyers on page one of the C1 form as nominate Executors in my mother's will. Since I was dealing with the C1 form myself the lawyers stepped down, giving a letter of declination. It is a little misleading in the form where it asks to list all the Nominate Executors in order from the will! All I had to do was eliminate their details from page 1!! The Sheriff Court in Edinburgh were really helpful too. Just glad that this is finally over but good to know that there are friendly and helpful people out there. To anyone considering completing a C1 form by themselves, with the help of this forum, Go For It! And save yourself some money! Thanks again Buddy 9. You are brilliant!
