Will – Residue to Children in Three Stages (Canada)
Will distributing residue to children in three stages.
Creating a Last Will & Testament is a key part of financial planning, no matter how young or healthy you may be. If you have children, it's essential to plan for their future, and a Will is of the most important legal documents you can create to ensure that they won't be entangled in a lengthy probate process.
This Will is specifically designed for the situation where the testator (the person making the will) has children. The Will first instructs the executor (also known as the trustee) to pay off any of the testator’s debts or expenses. The remainder will then be distributed to the testator’s children in equal shares. This Will also provides that if a beneficiary is not yet 30 years old, the executor (trustee) will hold and invest the property/money in trust for the beneficiary and will distribute the funds to the beneficiary in three stages. At age 21, the beneficiary will begin receiving the income made by his trust assets. At age 25, the beneficiary will receive one-half of the trust assets. At age 30, the beneficiary will receive the remainder of the trust assets.
