If I made my Will in another province, do I have to make a new one if I move to Alberta, and vice versa

Back to Top

You will not always have to remake your Will. However, if you want to be sure your out-of-province Will meets the requirements of Alberta law, it is a good idea to have it checked by an Alberta lawyer. Similarly, if you move to another province, it is a good idea to have your Will checked by a lawyer in that province to see that it meets the legal requirements of the province where you will live. In addition, a holograph Will written in Alberta may not be valid, depending on the province to which you move.
