Both California and the Philippines require lodging of the original will, which is obviously not possible for concurrent proceedings. What do I do?
You open a "main" probate in the state of the decedent's last residence. Then you open an "ancillary" probate in the other state. You lodge with the other state a triple certified copy of the will lodged in the main probate.

Yes. Workers comp considers all income - having it on your W2 just makes it easier to verify.
My checks are often 0 after all of the taxes paid on my tips. I am in California

they deal with these cases day in and day out and know what they are doing.
if it is... Read more »
