@@susanalee3557sorry Susana, my license is only for BC, thank you for your trust. You will have to find a lawyer that you trust in Ontario to get this done:)
Thank you for sharing your info about Ontario:), BC is actually also 2 years but there are special circumstances and scenarios for exceptions (like if there is a child) then even under 2 years can count!
Very informative whenever a will is to be made. My comments: the term "common law" has different meanings in BC vs. Hong Kong. In BC, it refers to law for common-law spouses according to the Family Acts while in HK, it often refers to broader laws according to judicial decisions and precedents.
For RRSP, TFSA, and life insurance, Cheryl said they are not part of the will, the beneficiary designated will be the one who has the rights to inherit. Are the rules only pertain to British Columbia, what about Ontario?
Hello, sorry as I am licensed in BC only, the information I was speaking about is BC based so it is best to check with an Ontario legal professional for your situation and questions. However, in Ontario, RRSP and TFSA with a designated beneficiary should also not be subjected to probate.
Sorry Angela, your situation is more complicated and I may not be able to give you as clean cut of an answer right now on this platform as circumstances may be arguable and there are many potential variables that are unclear and issues that may arise. So I strongly urge you to get legal advice from a lawyer of your choice to get a clearer and more detailed picture for your situation. If he dies without a will or if there is a dispute for the estate between his family members and yourself after he passes away, you may need to prove if you are really common law partners together or not when he is alive to see if you have a claim to the estate. The Poa is only for use when he is alive so technically if the poa provides the parameters for the niece to handle his assets, she may do so now and does not need to wait till his death.
Yes, both lawyers and notaries, if they do wills and estate planning they can assist. For details and quotes please feel free to give our office a call so we can better explain thanks!
If you have the original copy, it is still ok, however BC changed its laws in 2014 with WESA. So the wording and format for the new wills have also changed. Since 40 years is quite a long time ago, it will be good to check if your circumstances have changed also. If they have changed, you should consider re-doing a new one.
Unfortunately based on BC laws, if you gift away anything after death via a will unfairly, the party that's left out can still fight and argue about it in court.
@@sugarlam5519unfortunately this is very hard to give a clean cut black and white answer as there may be different interpretations and narratives of what your relationship status is truly like with the lady if you are still in touch etc. The cleanest way to protect yourself is to sign legal divorce agreements to make your intention and relationship status clear. I strongly urge you to consult a family law lawyer for your peace of mind!
Yes still ok, but because the BC wills and estates succession act changed in 2014, it is best to redo so the format, terms, wordings etc are more up to date:) also, 20 years ago, your circumstances may be different as well, so best to review and maybe redo:)
Yes while you are alive, you can do that, to gift whatever to whoever! Just after death on the will, the court will usually expect the split to be equal!
Not saying two wills is a must for everyone but in some cases, you may need to prepare a second will covering the assets located in the foreign jurisdiction. The other will may also address or help with foreign tax laws as their tax laws may be different than those in Canada. But of course if you have multiple wills, it is crucial that they are consistent together. So it is best to get legal advice from an estate planning professional and even a legal professional in the other jurisdiction for best course of action suitable for you.

Very detail explain in various scenarios. How come Cheryl Cantonese speaking so well, good slang
Thank you very much because I enjoy talking too much :) haha
外祖母生前已經按台山習俗把物業轉到男孫名下，並以繼子名義繼承（已經改跟外祖父姓）。但外祖母過身後，唯一女兒（即男孫母親）向法庭興訟指男孫欺騙外祖母，要求法官判除去男孫業主杈利。
BC 公證人說得對，家族成員可以用任何爭議入稟法院爭死者遺產的！最大受益人是與訟雙方的律師🥲
Cheryl is very knowledgable...even better than some junior lawyers 👍
Thank you very much for your kind words🙏🏻

郭小姐你好，我和男朋友一起8年了，因工作原因，只有周末才同居，現在他是癌症晚期，每次病重都只有我一個人去照顧，他沒有兒女，我算是他的配偶嗎？是否有權繼承遺產？因為他的姨生女做POA

两公婆死晒先係！

Thank you very much
問： 死後 join account 需要打税嗎？？ 請答
Joint bank accounts are not subjected to probate and can be directly transferred to the co-owner
如果我40 年前立了遺囑，要不要renew

郭小姐，請問怎樣可以與你聯絡， 你的公司電話？

請問如果男方沒有子女，同女方分居沒有離婚，但有保持聯絡，男方過世後女方可否分到遺產？🙏🏻

20年前立的遺囑，還有用嗎？

the will is valid until a new one replaces it🙏
但係如果爹哋媽咪未死前將啲錢俾其中一個兒女呢啲係佢哋嘅選擇不能夠話因為你個女兒我一定要分一半俾你死咗之後變咗遺產可能你可以喺court 度上訴但係生存我點樣俾錢同你完全冇關係
Yes while you are alive, you can do that, to gift whatever to whoever! Just after death on the will, the court will usually expect the split to be equal!
唔係好同意 兩地各自做will
Not saying two wills is a must for everyone but in some cases, you may need to prepare a second will covering the assets located in the foreign jurisdiction. The other will may also address or help with foreign tax laws as their tax laws may be different than those in Canada.
But of course if you have multiple wills, it is crucial that they are consistent together. So it is best to get legal advice from an estate planning professional and even a legal professional in the other jurisdiction for best course of action suitable for you.
