Bill > HB1218

This bill amends Georgia law to require personal representatives of a testate estate to notify the beneficiaries of the will's probate within six months of their qualification, unless the beneficiary has waived the right to notification, acknowledged service of the petition to probate the will, or is the personal representative themselves. The bill also clarifies that where a trust is a beneficiary, the notice requirement applies to the trust's current income or principal beneficiaries. Additionally, the bill specifies that the notice requirement does not alter any other applicable time periods under Georgia law related to the administration of the estate.
