To accommodate people who wanted to specify\u00a0<b>Self-Help National Federation of the Disabled<\/b>\u00a0In its will, some practical information about matters related to the estate is compiled here.

Inheritances and other contributions to the organization go towards its mission.<\/p><h4 data-block-key=\"zp8bl\"><strong>Will<\/strong><\/h4><p data-block-key=\"sh6hs\">A will is a formal document and a declaration by an individual of how their assets are to be distributed after their death. To ensure its validity, it is a good idea to consult a professional. The will must meet certain formal requirements to be considered valid:<\/p><ul><li data-block-key=\"t4xck\">It needs to be, for example.\u00a0<b>Dated<\/b>\u00a0and\u00a0<b>Clearly stated<\/b>\u00a0so that it is clear to the reader what the individual&#x27;s intention was in creating it.<\/li><li data-block-key=\"awd1u\">To be\u00a0<b>Certified<\/b>\u00a0of two certificates of awareness.<\/li><li data-block-key=\"4fmxg\">A will can be made at any time after the age of 18 and until the date of death, and it can be changed at any time. However, if heirs exist, there is no obligation to inform them of the will&#x27;s existence. The will can be registered with\u00a0<b>sheriff<\/b>, but that also ensures the document is done correctly, and it is then well preserved and comes to light at the time of death.<\/li><li data-block-key=\"e80pj\">There are many things to consider when creating a will, which is why it is important for people to seek assistance in drafting it. For example, one needs to keep in mind that in this country, people who own\u00a0<b>compulsory heirs<\/b>\u00a0survivors (spouse or children)\u00a0<b>not<\/b>\u00a0disposed of unless\u00a0<b>one-third of their assets<\/b>\u00a0to others than them. An individual who has no compulsory heirs can dispose of\u00a0<b>all assets<\/b>\u00a0to whom a will has been left.<\/li><li data-block-key=\"ztv9j\">If a person has\u00a0<b>No genetic record has been made.<\/b>\u00a0to run his assets to\u00a0<b>legitimate heir<\/b>\u00a0(children and other descendants, parents and siblings of the deceased, the deceased&#x27;s paternal and maternal grandparents and their children). If again\u00a0<b>no legal heirs<\/b>\u00a0Upon the death of an individual, all of his assets pass to\u00a0<b>treasury<\/b>\u00a0if a will has not been made. The will is therefore a key document, and it is important to consider having it drawn up early.<\/li><li data-block-key=\"922y9\">It should be noted that according to the law, associations like Sj\u00e1lfsbj\u00f6rg\u00a0<b>not<\/b>\u00a0to pay inheritance tax on an inheritance they receive.<\/li><\/ul><p data-block-key=\"pq2tg\">Non-profit organizations like Sj\u00e1lfsbj\u00f6rg therefore welcome and gratefully accept, with great humility, when people wish to support the organization&#x27;s activities and advocacy work by leaving a gift to the organization in their will.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Erf\u00f0agjafir \u00dea\u00f0 hefur f\u00e6rst \u00ed v\u00f6xt a\u00f0 f\u00f3lk arflei\u00f0ir hluta eigna sinna til einhverra f\u00e9lagasamtaka og hefur Sj\u00e1lfsbj\u00f6rg fengi\u00f0 sl\u00edkar gjafir.
