What is an inheritance advance?
My Inheritance Cash purchases an assigned portion of a qualifying beneficiary’s expected inheritance. You receive cash earlier and receive less from the estate later. It is not an interest-bearing loan, but it has a cost. There are no monthly loan payments; payment comes from the assigned estate distribution. Review the agreement’s obligations and exceptions, including the published exceptions for fraud or misrepresentation.

Does the state determine whether I qualify?
State law affects the estate process and applicable requirements, but a page’s availability does not guarantee funding. MIC reviews your inheritance interest, estate assets and obligations, documentation, and expected distribution. The amount and timing depend on the case.
What if the estate may use a simpler procedure?
Ask the estate attorney whether a small-estate, affidavit, or other appropriate transfer procedure applies before assuming a lengthy probate wait. If you can comfortably wait for distribution, you retain the inheritance you would otherwise assign. The state guides provide useful starting points for that discussion.
