Can I Apply For An Inheritance Cash Advance Now?

Yes — If you’re an heir or beneficiary to an estate in probate, you can apply for an inheritance advance at any time before the estate administration process is completed.

Since the introduction of inheritance funding, heirs and beneficiaries no longer have to wait until probate is closed and the estate is distributed before they can start using and enjoying their inheritance money.

Requesting a free quote is the first step in applying for an inheritance cash advance, but it doesn’t guarantee approval or obligate you to accept funding if you’re approved.

We will need to review the inheritance, the estate’s status, available probate records, and other facts that can affect your eligibility and whether your share of the expected distribution can support an advance.

Can I Apply For An Inheritance Advance In My State?

When Can I Apply For A Cash Advance On My Inheritance?

To apply for an inheritance cash advance, probate must be open — that’s really the only time-related requirement. Heirs can even apply the same day the probate case opens and the file number is assigned, or any time thereafter, as long as the probate process is still ongoing. Once probate concludes, however, the window closes.

Many heirs contact TriMark for an inheritance advance loan after discovering probate will take longer — or much longer — than they initially expected or were led to believe. Others have an immediate expense and want to understand their options before deciding whether to tap into their future inheritance to cover it.

You can apply for a cash advance on your inheritance at any time. Once you do, we’ll have a starting point to evaluate your situation and explain how an inheritance advance works.

If you are unsure whether the estate is far enough along, ask us. We can let you know what information we need to start a review and whether anything needs to happen before we can approve your advance.

How Do I Apply For A Cash Advance On My Inheritance?

First, request a free quote.

Most heirs apply online, but you can also call us at (877) 932-2628 and speak to one of our friendly inheritance funding representatives.

The application is very short and takes less than a minute. Basically, it will ask for your name and contact information, the person you’re inheriting from, and how much of your future inheritance you’d like to receive. That’s it.

The time needed for a decision depends on how long it takes to receive probate documents and verify the estate and your relationship to it.

Because most state and county probate courts offer probate documents online, we can often complete our evaluation within hours of your applying for an inheritance cash advance.

Inheritance Funding Is A 3-Step Process

For most states and counties in the US, the probate documents needed for an inheritance advance are available online directly from the probate court. Our processors can securely download them and begin reviewing them immediately.

After you’re approved for an advance and documents are signed, we wire the funds directly to your bank account so you can access them immediately.

3. receive Your Funds

After approval and e-signing, we wire funds directly to your bank account. Repayment comes from the estate after probate closes.

What Information Will I Need To Apply?

You don’t need to know every detail of the estate before contacting us. It helps to have the deceased person’s name, the state or county handling the estate, and the name of the executor, administrator, or probate attorney if you know it.

A probate case number can also help us locate the matter, but you can still ask us what to do if you do not have one.

Depending on the estate, we may need documents or additional information confirming your right to inherit and the amount you expect to receive. Let us know about anything that could affect your share, including a dispute, a prior inheritance advance, or another claim against the expected distribution. Providing that information early helps us give you a more useful assessment.

Where probate records are publicly available online, we can usually retrieve them directly and begin our review just moments after you apply. We will tell you if there are any documents that you must provide.

What Determines Whether My Application Is Approved?

We evaluate the inheritance and estate, not just the urgency of your need for cash. We need to establish that you are entitled to an identifiable share and that the anticipated distribution can support the proposed advance.

A pending dispute, uncertainty about the estate’s assets or obligations, prior funding, or incomplete documentation may affect the amount available or prevent us from making an offer. The applicable state also matters: we do not provide inheritance funding everywhere.

Approval is therefore specific to your circumstances. Two heirs in different estates—even if they expect to inherit similar amounts—may receive different decisions because the estates present different facts.

Is There A Fee To Apply?

No. You can apply with us and request a quote without paying an application fee. Applying does not obligate you to accept an offer.

That is different from the cost of an inheritance advance. If we approve your request, review the proposed agreement before signing. Make sure you understand how much cash you would receive, how much is assigned from your future inheritance, and what the arrangement would leave you to receive when the estate distributes its assets.

If any term is unclear, ask us to explain it before you decide.

Can I Receive Funds Today?

Same-day funding is possible — but never guaranteed.

Under ideal conditions, we can fund inheritance advance requests in as little as 3 hours, but that’s rare.

Our goal is to approve and wire funds within 24 hours (1 business day) after we receive an heir’s application.

When all required documentation is available and there are no delays, heirs often receive funds the same day or the next business day after they apply for an inheritance cash advance from TriMark.

If you need funds urgently, please let us know when you apply.

Are you ready to start enjoying your inheritance the way you were meant to?
