Being named an executor can feel overwhelming, especially when you are trying to manage paperwork, finances, government requirements, and family expectations while grieving someone you cared about.
Navigating Estate Administration in Canada was written to make that process easier to understand. In clear, practical language, Claire Bennett walks Canadian executors through the administration of an estate from the first days after a death to the final distribution and closing of the estate.
Inside, readers will learn how to approach wills and executor authority, probate and administration, estate bank accounts, debts and creditors, registered accounts and beneficiary designations, CRA requirements, the deceased person's final tax return, optional tax returns, estate income and T3 trust returns, real estate and investments, the CRA clearance certificate, beneficiary distributions, estate accounting, and the final steps involved in closing an estate.
Because estate law is not the same across Canada, the guide also explains where provincial and territorial rules matter and gives special attention to Quebec's separate civil-law succession system. Rather than pretending there is one procedure that applies to every Canadian estate, it helps readers understand what needs to be confirmed for their own circumstances.
This is not a book about becoming an estate lawyer or tax expert. It is a practical roadmap for understanding what comes next, keeping good records, asking the right questions, recognizing when professional help may be needed, and moving through an unfamiliar responsibility one manageable step at a time.
Navigating Estate Administration in Canada is an independent educational resource and is not a substitute for legal, tax, accounting, or other professional advice. Government requirements, forms, deadlines, and procedures can change, and readers should always confirm current information with the appropriate authorities.
