7 The composition of your assets In your estate Outside your estate Probatable Assets solely in the Deceased name Joint assets Named beneficiary life insurance, RRSP s and RRIF s Unique assets TFSA 7. 7
8 Duties and responsibilities of an Executor The overall role of the executor is to administer and settle the estate of the deceased according to their final wishes as expressed in the Will according to provincial law: Funeral arrangements and secure valuable assets Locate, value and collect all estate assets Apply for probate Pay off any debts Notifications, cancellations, dealing with real estate Understand the risks with any investments and take action Prepare and file Estate Information Return with Ministry of Finance 8

10 10 New Rules for Executors
11 What Changed & Why Were Changes Required? The Estate Information Return (EIR) was created by the Ontario Ministry of Finance Prior to January 1, 2015, detailed information regarding estate assets was not required when applying for a probate certificate. There was no requirement to provide supporting documentation to back up the asset value reported. Consequently, some believe that asset values were being conservatively estimated, and in some cases, significantly under estimated. The EIR includes: Information about the deceased and the executor List and description of each estate asset (some estate assets such as household contents can be grouped together). 11
12 What Information Is Included In An EIR Form? Assets that should be included: Real estate in Ontario (less encumbrances) Bank accounts Non-registered investments (e.g. stocks, bonds, trust units, options) RRSPs, RRIFs, TFSAs if proceeds pass through the estate (e.g. no named beneficiary other than Estate ) Vehicles and vessels (e.g. cars, trucks, boats, ATVs, motorcycles) All property of which the deceased had beneficial interest even if legal title was held by someone else 12
13 What Information Is Included In An EIR? Assets that should be included: Jointly owned assets without a right of survivorship (e.g. joint tenants in common - JTIC) All other property, wherever situated, including: Goods Intangible property Business interests Insurance, if proceeds pass through the estate (e.g. no named beneficiary other than Estate ) A calculation of applicable probate tax is also included 13
14 What Assets Are Excluded from the EIR? Real estate outside Ontario Canada Pension Plan (CPP) death benefits Assets that pass outside of the estate including: - Jointly owned assets with a right of survivorship (JTWROS) - RRSPs, RRIFs, TFSAs with a named beneficiary other than Estate - Insurance proceeds paid to a named beneficiary other than Estate 14
15 Concerns of the Executor Acceptance of personal responsibility in case of an error Criticism from family members and heirs Dissatisfaction among family members excluded from the Will Conflicts of interest Difficulty in administering due to travel distance, time constraints or insufficient knowledge Difficulty in taking care of financial issues during a difficult time 15
16 Choosing your Executor Things to consider Trustworthy, and can reliably carry out the instructions in your Will Capable of making fair decisions and balancing conflicting interests Willing and able to put in many hours of work over two or more years Knowledgeable in legal, tax and administrative issues Residency implications Multiple executors Likely to survive you Communication skills 16
17 Estate Planning Are You Prepared? 60% haven t spoken to an advisor about an inheritance plan Will we out live our money? 10 years past healthy - POA Financial Plan Now Consolidate today to help tomorrow Tax efficient wealth transfer 28% plan to leave an inheritance to a charity Gifting now vs. inheritance 17
