A Certificate of Title, often referred to simply as a “title,” is a legal document that serves as proof of ownership for a motor vehicle. This document is issued by the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) and is a critical piece of paperwork for vehicle owners in the state.
The MV16 is the application that is used to retire the title. In the past it was PennDot's general practice to endorse this form and stamp it to state that the title was retired.
Form MV-16T is to be completed by the transferors of the mobile home or manufactured home and provided to the transferee to be submitted with the completed application for a Pennsylvania Certificate of Title.
Mobile home owners who own both their mobile home and the real property it sits on have the option of changing from a DMV issued title to a warranty deed. This is called “retiring the title”.
Gains from the sale, exchange or other disposition of any kind of property are taxable under the Pennsylvania personal income tax (PA PIT) law.
