Assistance with inheritance law and tax problems

Questioner

Ex-husband died on 1-2016, minor children then accepted the inheritance under benefit of inventory. What follows in May 2017 is one tax assessment, Income Premium National Insurance. Objection follows and the decision on my objection is well-founded. All that remains for me to do is pay the outstanding costs (which are not explained), according to the BD. From what, actually? My own wallet or frozen credit on his bank balance? Less than two weeks later, a letter follows from the same BD in which I am said to have requested a deferment of payment for a series of no less than six (!) assessments. However, I have never requested anything in that direction because I know nothing about the existence of these six assessments. There is a significant, aggregate amount outstanding and a series of outstanding amounts (again, no explanation as to what these relate to). The decision on 'my' request -which I never submitted- is immediately considered a claim on the entire estate. Well; it is gone; embezzled by third parties who thought they were entitled to it because of completely incorrect information by an incompetent lawyer. I can't see the forest anymore because of amounts/assessments. What is the purpose of this? Interest must also be paid etc. No law is as difficult and complicated as inheritance law, for a layman. Please help :)

The liquidator should have settled the debts of the estate. You are therefore not obliged to simply pay this. If you wish, you can contact us without any obligation.

So I am the liquidator :)

I can imagine that you were shocked. The unlawful appropriation of an inheritance is theft. With regard to the tax authorities, you can force them to state what the assessments are aimed at in substance. If you wish, you can contact us without any obligation.

Unfortunately, the police think very differently about this and consider this a civil matter. They refuse very firmly to take a report. Where is spoken, by the way, of a suspicion that these people have left it all to themselves. After all, the 'letter' was on a digital device to which they had access themselves. The Apple iMac would also have been given to them. My lawyer thought that I shouldn't be so difficult and just take the loss -for my children- as it came. She had no intention of taking action against this; I would have to do that myself. In any case, she didn't want to invest time and energy in it because it would be pointless since the evidence was lacking. I have now sent a letter to the BD, thank you for your response.

Don't mention it.
