Amends Iowa Probate Code Section 633.295 (Testimony of Witnesses) to allow execution of the self-proving will affidavit any time after the will-signing ceremony. Currently, this statute cannot be used to execute a self-proving affidavit before the testator’s death; Amends Code §633.356 (Distribution of Property by Affidavit); Amends Code § 633.432 (Relating to situations where an estate personal representative files a claim in the estate) to allow temporary administrators to limit their reports to a simple disallowance of the claim, which will quickly defer the decision to a judge. |
