U.S. will
Posted date : Jul 16, 2024.
I read with interest the recent question regarding having a U.S. will if you own property in the U.S. However, it was not entirely clear to me whether a U.S. will is REQUIRED in order to allow property to be distributed in Canada. Does ONLY a Canadian will suffice in that regard, provided that the U.S. property and its distribution are listed in that will?

Ed.: A Canadian will satisfies the requirements for directing the disposition of property located in the United States upon the owner’s death. A second will written in the United States is not required.
