Generally, in New York, once a divorce is
final, the law treats the former spouse as
though they predeceased you for many
estate-planning purposes.

This may automatically revoke wishes
on a Will or Trust, as well as beneficiary
designations on certain accounts
(retirement, life insurance, investment,
etc.)

SCPA § 1310 small estate affidavit)

going through full probate court. You
present the signed, notarized form
with a death certificate directly to the
bank or institution.

New York City's "Pied-à-Terre Tax" places an annual surcharge on high-value residential properties that aren't used as primary residences—affecting 1–3 family homes valued over $5M and condos/co-ops valued at $1M+.
Receiving a notice doesn't automatically mean you owe! You can qualify for an exemption if the property is the primary residence of:

👤 An individual owner or tenant
👥 Majority LLC members (collectively holding >50% interest)
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 An immediate family member (spouse, parent, child, sibling, grandparent, or grandchild)
📜 The sole beneficiary of a trust
