Issue of Confirmation
The Sheriff Clerk's Office will normally issue Confirmation to you within 3 working days of receiving the inventory, fee and any Will or Bond of Caution. It will be posted to your home address. You should then take or send the Confirmation to the holders of the funds to enable them to release any money due.
If there are several items of estate in the inventory, you can ask for separate Certificates of Confirmation for specific items. The certificates have the same effect as the original Confirmation but can save you time when collecting the estate. The fee for each certificate is £5.
