                               GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

Everyone required to file this Inventory form shall do so within three (3) months after the estate is opened, 
or within three (3) months of the date of death when an estate is not opened. Extensions may be granted for good 
cause at the discretion of the Register. Any Personal Representative may be subject, personally and individually, 
to a fine under 12 Del. C. § 1906 if the Inventory is not filed on time. The Inventory shall be filed in the Office of 
the  Register  of  Wills  of  the  county  in  which  the  estate  has  been  opened,  or  when  no  estate  is  opened,  in  the 
county where the Decedent lived at the date of death. The Inventory shall list all personal property the Decedent 
owned at the date of death. It must also list all real estate the Decedent owned at the date of death and must 
provide the map number of each piece of real estate, the names/address(es) of the new owner(s) of the real estate, 
and  his/her/their  relationship  to  the  Decedent  (for  example,  son).  The  Inventory  must  also  be  filed  in  every 
county of the state in which the Decedent owned real estate at the date of death. The person who is responsible 
for preparing and filing the Inventory must swear or affirm that the information in it is true and correct before 
the Inventory will be treated as legally filed.

If the Decedent owned no property of the kind described in any of the following schedules, the word "None" 
should be written on the page.

If the Decedent died before January 1, 1999, the person responsible for filing this Inventory must file a 
similar inventory with the Division of Revenue using its form. This must be done within nine (9) months from the 
date of death, not from the date when the estate was opened.

The person who opens an estate for a deceased person is called the “personal representative." That term 
includes an executor, administrator, and any other person responsible for filing an Inventory.

If more space is needed on any of the following schedules, additional sheets of paper of the same size may 
be inserted following the appropriate schedule, provided the added sheet refers to the schedule it supplements.

The value to be used for any property listed in this Inventory is the fair market value as of the date of 
death of the Decedent.
