After making a mistake applying for probate, I am currently re-applying which has been very tricky. Mistake I made was that on the probate form I put that all my dad's assets were joint with my mother (his sole beneficiary) whereas in fact around £30k of premium bonds were in dad's sole name. Probate was granted, but then my mistake was pointed out by a family friend so I am reapplying.
My concern is that it is possible there are prizes from the bonds, and I cannot find this out or redeem/transfer the bonds them until after probate. But if there is a significant win, would this affect probate in any way?
Very grateful for any advice.
