Use an ancillary certificate of estate trustee with a will without retyping your details

When a foreign grant must be recognized for Ontario assets and a will exists, the ancillary certificate repeats the trustee's name, address, and appointment details. This guide is an example of storing them once in hivi.

Official form and source

Start from the official source and always use the current version — form numbers and links can change:

• Service page: Apply for probate of an estate — ontario.ca
• Form (Central Forms Repository): FORM 74.29 - Courts of Justice Act. Certificate of Ancillary Appointment of Estate Trustee with a Will — rcp-74-29

What this form is about

Form 74.29 is the certificate of ancillary appointment of estate trustee with a will, issued when a foreign estate grant is recognized for administering Ontario assets where the deceased left a will.

Before you start: what to gather

• The estate trustee's full legal name and address.
• The deceased's name and date of death.
