Which service to choose?<\/h2>\r\n

\r\n If you need to proceed quickly with the settlement of an estate, compare\r\nthe timeframes before submitting your request. The expedited service reduces \r\nDOCUGO's processing time, without accelerating procedures with other organizations. To understand each step, discover how a will search is carried out<\/a> step by step. \r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n\r\n \r\n

\r\n \u2713<\/span>\r\n What is included\r\n <\/h2>\r\n

\r\n Les services DOCUGO incluent l\u2019accompagnement administratif, le formulaire s\u00e9curis\u00e9, la v\u00e9rification des informations transmises, le suivi de la demande et la r\u00e9ception des r\u00e9sultats disponibles.\r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n\r\n

\r\n

\r\n \u2715<\/span>\r\n What is not included\r\n <\/h2>\r\n

\r\n DOCUGO does not provide legal advice, does not draft wills, does not interpret wills, and does not represent the applicant before a court. DOCUGO does not provide a copy of the will directly if that copy must be requested from the professional who holds it. \r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n\r\n <\/div>\r\n\r\n \r\n

\r\n

Required Documents<\/h2>\r\n

\r\n To process the request, it is generally necessary to provide information about the deceased person, the applicant\u2019s contact details, and an official proof of death. Consult our complete guide on the will search<\/a> for details on the accepted documents. \r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Why choose the expedited service?<\/h2>\r\n

\r\n Are you considering renouncing an estate? In Quebec, you generally have six months from the date of death to accept or renounce an estate. This period may be extended to allow you at least 60 days after the inventory is closed. Acting quickly helps you save time for the necessary procedures. \r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n\r\n \r\n

\r\n

Time-consuming steps<\/h2>\r\n

\r\n Each estate procedure involves unavoidable timeframes. Here is the typical process and the waiting points to anticipate to plan your procedures effectively: \r\n <\/p>\r\n \r\n

Obtaining the death certificate<\/h3>\r\n

\r\n Son obtention peut demander plusieurs semaines, selon l\u2019inscription du d\u00e9c\u00e8s au registre de l\u2019\u00e9tat civil, le traitement de la demande et la livraison du document.\r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n\r\n \r\n

Appointment with the notary<\/h3>\r\n

\r\n Pr\u00e9voyez les d\u00e9lais de disponibilit\u00e9 du professionnel juridique pour faire l'analyse de la succession et, au besoin, formaliser une renonciation.\r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n\r\n <\/div>\r\n\r\n \r\n

\r\n

Why act early?<\/h3>\r\n

\r\n Administrative delays accumulate quickly from one step to the next. The expedited service<\/strong> shortens DOCUGO processing so you can continue your procedures without delay; however, it does not guarantee accelerated issuance of the death certificate by the civil registry, nor the availability of a notary. \r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n\r\n

\r\n

Important<\/h4>\r\n

\r\n A person who knows their status as a successor and who does not renounce within the applicable timeframe may\r\nbe presumed to have accepted the succession, subject to the rules and exceptions provided by law. Consult\r\na notary or lawyer promptly to understand your rights. DOCUGO provides administrative support and\r\ndoes not provide legal advice. \r\n <\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
