Dividing your estate

On the 'Divide your residuary estate' page, you can set the percentage of your residuary estate you'd like each of your chosen beneficiaries to receive.

A few things to know as you allocate:

The percentages need to add up to exactly 100%.

Every listed beneficiary needs a share above 0%. If there's a beneficiary you no longer want to include, remove them using the three-dot menu next to their name.
To add a beneficiary, tap the Back button to return to the earlier steps where you can add a person or a charity — they'll then appear on this page.
