Track paper format probate application

Trusts Discussion

Hi all

Back in September I read that this was going to be a thing. Is it yet? If so, how do I go about tracking a paper format application?

Many thanks,

You need to submit a ‘Notice of Change’ on your MyHMCTS online account. See the link to the HMRC guidance - which, as usual, isn’t great but it is what you need to do. I know it seems counter-intuitive as there is no change of representation but this is how you do it and it works.

Hi Emma

Just wanted to say thank you for this. I used it this morning to check a paper application for the first time and the probate was granted 4 hours later! (6 weeks from application).

Co-incidence?
