No, that is way below the level that a IHT return needs to be done, you may not even need to apply for probate depending where her assets are held.0

Her assets are in First Direct - I don't think they release the funds if the amount is over £20K?0

Their website does not actually give a limit, so the executor /administrator needs to contact them to find out if it is required or not.raddy59 said:Her assets are in First Direct - I don't think they release the funds if the amount is over £20K?

If it is required it is a fairly straightforward process and you can get plenty of help here.2
