What is a Receipts and Disbursements?

A Receipts and Disbursements document helps you notify parties of estate payments. Oftentimes, a court, or other interested party, will want a financial statement of the estate to to ensure it's being properly handled. A Receipts and Disbursements document helps you organize estate management information and relay it to others.

Being the administrator of an estate is a big responsibility but you can keep on top of things with a Receipts and Disbursements document. A court will probably want a written record the money that goes to and from the estate. You may also be asked for a statement from beneficiaries and attorneys.

Keep everything in order with a Receipts and Disbursements document.

When to use a Receipts and Disbursements:

  • You are the administrator of an estate.
