Is it legal to receive a living inheritance?

To the ignorance of some and surprise of others, anticipated inheritance is a legally valid act supported by its registration before the National Superintendence of Public Registries (SUNARP), through a public deed...

The above-mentioned document must contain the anticipator’s (that is, the one who grants the advanced inheritance) will, the beneficiary’s acceptance and the identification of the inherited property, its economic value and any registered legal obligations that lay on the property, such as mortgages, taxes, among others.

The only ones that will be able to access this benefit are the so-called “forced heirs”, who can be of a descending degree, such as a spouse or children, or of an ascending degree that includes parents, grandparents or great-grandparents.

In the case of children, regardless of whether they were born within or outside of marriage or whatever their economic situation, they have the right to receive the inheritance in equal proportion.
