Can the person administering an estate also inherit from it?

Yes. An executor can also be a beneficiary.

When that happens, careful record-keeping and fair treatment of the other beneficiaries become particularly important.

Would you know how to manage both roles?

Some estates include business interests that require additional attention during administration.

The deceased may have owned shares in a corporation, held an interest in a privately owned business, or had other business-related assets.

These interests form part of the estate and need to be properly identified and accounted for during the administration process.

For executors, understanding what the deceased actually owned is an important step when working through the estate.

Would you like us to cover more topics about estates that include business interests?

An estate does not always involve beneficiaries who live nearby.

When beneficiaries are located in different jurisdictions, administration may involve additional considerations.

The applicable rules can depend on the circumstances and jurisdiction involved, so executors should make sure the right professionals are involved when questions cross provincial or international boundaries.

Would you know what could make an estate more complicated when beneficiaries live elsewhere?

The people or organizations receiving an inheritance are an important part of the estate administration picture.

A beneficiary may be a minor, a charity, an educational institution, or someone living in another jurisdiction.

Each situation can introduce different administrative considerations.

Understanding who the beneficiaries are and what circumstances apply to them can help identify which steps and professional support may be needed.

Which beneficiary situation would you like us to explain in more detail?

Being named in a Will can come with a significant responsibility, and sometimes the person named may realize they are unable or unwilling to take on the administration of the estate.

Renunciation is one option that may be available in certain circumstances, but it is important to understand that timing matters. Taking action on behalf of an estate before renouncing can affect the options available to you.

ETP Canada can provide administrative guidance to executors, while legal questions should be directed to a qualified legal professional.

Were you aware that an executor may have options if they do not wish to act?

This October, don’t let your estate plan give you a fright!

From missing Wills to forgotten digital assets, these mistakes can come back to haunt families when it matters most.

At ETP Canada, we help take the fear out of the future executor role, making sure your wishes are clear, your documents are up to date, and your loved ones are protected.

Because peace of mind shouldn’t be scary.

Not every beneficiary situation follows the same administrative path.

When a beneficiary is a minor, additional procedures may apply, which means an executor needs to understand what is required before moving forward with the estate.

ETP Canada’s role is to help executors understand the administrative process and identify when the appropriate professionals should be involved.

Specific legal requirements should always be confirmed with a qualified legal professional.

Have you ever wondered why an estate with a minor beneficiary can require extra steps?

10/03/2026

Being named as an executor can feel unexpected, particularly when circumstances have changed since the Will was prepared.

If you do not want to act, there may be an option to renounce the role.
However, timing is important, and acting on behalf of an estate can affect the options available.

ETP Canada provides administrative guidance, while specific legal questions should be directed to a qualified legal professional.

Would you know what to do if you were named as an executor tomorrow?
