Each province and territory is different and a chart of the court probate fees by province is shown at the end of this post. There is no fee or a very low fee for smaller estates. The areas of Canada that have a maximum fee are Alberta ($400) and Quebec ($65).
Probate in New Jersey costs about $150 for the average length Will. The probate fee is based upon the length of the Will, not the value of the estate, so a Will fifteen pages long for an estate worth $100,000 would cost more to probate than a Will two pages long for an estate worth $1,000,000.
