If an executor has negligently or deliberately failed to declare prior gifts and/or inheritances declared by a beneficiary on the CA24 form, can this be changed after Grant of probate and if yes, what procedure applies?
Have seen this but I am unclear as to whether prior gifts (Money, property, etc) are "Material Ommissions". I have been told by the solicitor that a Corrective Affidavit CA26 form can not be used in this instance.
I think the solicitor should be more explicit about why they consider it can't be done.
It sounds like a more complicated situation than what you outlined in your first post
You are correct.
Perhaps I should have asked the question "Can the sworn declaration of a beneficiary be changed without submitting a CA26 and without the beneficiary even knowing it was changed?".
