Frequently Asked Questions
What documents are included in a basic estate plan in Minnesota?
A basic estate plan typically includes a last will and testament, a durable power of attorney for finances, and a health care directive. These documents let you name beneficiaries and decision-makers. Minnesota law requires the will to be signed by two witnesses.
Do I need a trust to avoid probate in Minnesota?
Not everyone needs a trust. In Minnesota, estates under $75,000 may qualify for a simplified probate process called a summary administration. A trust can help avoid probate for larger estates but is not required for everyone.
What is the Minnesota estate tax threshold for 2025?
For deaths in 2025, the Minnesota estate tax exemption is $3 million. Estates valued above this amount may owe state estate tax. Federal estate tax exemption is much higher, so most estates only face Minnesota tax.
