How long does it take to get a grant of probate?

  • If the estate is not complex and all assets and liabilities are known to the executor then the application may be filed in the probate registry of the Supreme Court of NSW upon expiration of the 14 day period of notice.
  • Once the application has been filed it will be processed by the court. The court will evaluate the application and if they have no further queries the grant of probate is sealed with the mark of the Supreme Court of NSW and returned to the applicant.
  • The time it takes for the court to process an application will depend on how many applications there are before the court at that time.
