My uncle died without signing his will and so everything passed to his sister. She wrote a deed of variation to essentially redirect the estate as he had intended, and she asked me to be the executor as he had originally requested.
I’ve now got letters of administration, and settled most of the estate, just a house sale to complete and a few items to be sold before I will call it completed so I can distribute to the beneficiaries. With COVID lockdowns it’s taken almost 2 years to get this far!
I believe that, when everything is resolved normally, the beneficiaries should have copies of the estate accounts.
i cannot find any information as to who should see those when a deed of variation is in place - is it just his sister that needs to see those as she wrote the deed, or does every beneficiary need copies? Or am I completely mistaken on this requirement?
