Questions answered? Let's get started!
A Kentucky deed ordinarily collects sworn signatures from both sides of the transfer. This one does not. Where a deed corrects an error in an earlier deed running between the same grantor and the same grantee, KRS 382.135(2)(e) lifts the sworn consideration certificate out of the instrument, and the receiving side's signature goes with it. Sometimes searched as a corrective deed or a scrivener's error deed, this fillable Kentucky quitclaim deed of correction restates a recorded conveyance on corrected terms and carries one notarized signature.
The exception that empties three paragraphs
KRS 382.135(1) loads a Kentucky deed with content: the full names of both parties, their mailing addresses, a statement of the full consideration, the in care of address for the year's tax bill, and a sworn certificate signed by the grantor or agent and the grantee or agent. Subsection (2) names six kinds of deed the requirements of paragraphs (1)(c), (d), and (e) do not reach, and paragraph (2)(e) is this instrument: deeds which correct errors in previous deeds conveying the same property from the same grantor to the same grantee. The names and the mailing addresses of paragraphs (1)(a) and (1)(b) keep their place on the form. Section 8 states the exception where a clerk computing tax reads it.
A transfer tax the statute never reaches
An ordinary deed meets KRS 142.050 at the counter: fifty cents for each five hundred dollars of value, charged to the grantor and certified by the clerk, with KRS 382.260 holding the instrument out of the record until it is paid. A correcting deed sits in the exemption list under a paragraph of its own, KRS 142.050(7)(d), covering a transfer of title which confirms or corrects a deed previously recorded. County offices publishing deed of correction requirements add the practical boundary: tax is collected where the consideration amount has been changed, which is also where the sworn certificate returns.
Four things a Kentucky clerk looks for
Kentucky prescribes no statutory correction deed form, so the instrument takes its shape from those two statutes and from county intake requirements, consistent office to office: the parties are identical to those in the deed being corrected, no party is added, removed, or changed, the instrument says on its face that it is a deed of correction, it refers to the deed it corrects, and the reason for the correction is apparent. Sections 3, 4, and 9 carry those items. The source of title statement of KRS 382.110, the preparer endorsement of KRS 382.335, and acknowledgment under KRS 382.130 stay where they always were.
What this form recites, and what it is not arranged for
The deed recites exactly one grantor, an individual, with a marital status entry; the grantee or grantees named in the deed being corrected, with a co-ownership designation entry; one prior deed identified by its recording data; and one correction stated as a before and after pair. A single signature block follows, one acknowledgment certificate beneath it, and whoever drew the instrument signs the Section 11 endorsement. A plat slide reference pointing at the wrong slide, an acreage figure that does not match the survey, and a source of title clause citing the wrong deed book present the patterns this deed recites. It is not arranged for two people on the granting side, for an entity or a fiduciary conveying through a representative, for an agent signing under a power of attorney, for a joining spouse, or for an instrument that changes the consideration.
Where a correction stops and a court begins
Correction by a second deed rests on the agreement of the same two parties, which is why identity of the parties is the condition every Kentucky source states. The instrument carries no covenant of title, since Kentucky attaches covenants to statutory words and this deed prints neither with warranty under KRS 382.030 nor with special warranty under KRS 382.040, so liens, easements, and chain gaps ride through the correction untouched. Changing who takes, changing the estate taken, or settling a disagreement about the earlier deed's meaning is reformation, a remedy a court supplies, and no Kentucky appellate decision construing a deed of correction was located when this product was researched.
The download delivers this corrective quitclaim deed as a fillable PDF, a completed Franklin County example with every blank filled, and a plain language guide covering the correction entries, the single notarized signature, and recording at the county clerk's office. The materials are informational and are not legal advice.

Sorry, I did not see that I was in the wrong review and just sent a review of a "product" I ordered online. As for Deeds.com I was very happy with the process and speed of getting the forms. I have used this site before. Highly recommend.

The process was fast and efficient. I did get a bit confused after entering info for my package but soon realized I had completed this part of the process and only needed to leave the page and wait for review of the document and then the invoice. It was pretty simple. After payment of the invoice I was notified that the document had been submitted. A few hours later I received notice that the document was recorded by the city. It was fast!
We are motivated by your feedback to continue delivering excellence. Thank you!

Well, When I got the question right I got the answers right from Claim Deed. In the end it all worked out very, very good. I'm pleased with the deed and the price was very fair. Thank you for answering all my crazy questions. Now all we have to do is go to UPS and sign it. Thank, again.
Thank you!

Wow - finding your service was a lifesaver! I know my forms, but I don't have the time right now to draft them from "scratch". So once I found this site it was a couple of quick clicks and VOILA!! almost a done deal. Thanks for the assistance.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Bottom line - it was certainly worth the $21 (+-?) I paid for the form and instructions, etc. Admittedly the form is a little inflexible in terms of editing for readability but I understand that offering greater flexibility would likely make theft more likely. So I'm happy with what I got. One suggestion - add more info about what's required in the "Source of Title" section.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

The deed form is hard to fill in. There is no way to fill in the county in the "reviewed by" section. Also, there is no place for the Grantee's address on the form. I had to include it in the fill-in space for the legal description.
Thank you!
