Question: Hi, I am ready to request letters testamentary in the case I filed through your service but I am having trouble finding the correct place to request them.  Where do I request them?.  Thank you!

Answer: That depends on into which county probate court you are eFiling, Harris County or all others:

Probate courts in all other counties -

• Create a cover letter. The format of it is unimportant. You just need something to upload,
• Choose a Filing Code of Requests on page 2 of the eFiling process.
• Upload your cover letter as the lead document.
• Under Additional Court Services check "Issue Letters Testamentary, Guardianship, or Administration"
• Make sure you request the correct number of letters.
• Complete your submission in the normal manner.
