Description
The Affidavit of Domicile is a legal document used in Utah to establish the legal residence of a deceased individual, known as the decedent. This form is primarily utilized to facilitate the transfer or delivery of securities owned by the decedent at the time of death. It requires the affiant, typically the executor or administrator of the decedent’s estate, to provide their name, address, and the decedent's last known address along with the duration of their residency there. It is essential to ensure that the form is filled out accurately, as it serves to affirm that the decedent was not a resident of any other state at the time of death. For those in the legal profession, including attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants, understanding how to properly complete and submit this affidavit is crucial in estate management and securing asset transfers. The affidavit must be signed in front of a notary public to be legally binding. This form can be particularly valuable for individuals working with nomadic clients who may have unique residency situations, as it enables legal clarity over the domicile for purposes of estate processing.
