Fees are charged on the value of the estate at death (the rules for which assets count differ) and are paid when you apply. Lawyer fees and other court fees are separate. Rates change: confirm with the court before filing. Where a province's tier table could not be read, we say so rather than guess. Rules, fees and programs change and were read on 2026-11-14: confirm with the official source. General information, not legal advice. Quebec follows its own rules: see atlasquebec.ca.
