Affidavit of Identity and Survivorship for Transfer on Death Deeds -- Minnesota Form 50.2.3
Minnesota's transfer on death deeds are governed by Minn. Stat. 507.071.
To complete the transfer of property rights after the grantor owner's death, the beneficiary must file an affidavit of identity and survivorship in the county where the land is located (subd.20). The affidavit must contain details about the deceased grantor owner, all beneficiaries, surviving or deceased, a legal description of the real estate, recording information from the transfer on death deed, and the address of the individual or entity who should receive future tax statements.
In addition to the affidavit, include an official copy of the grantor owner's death certificate and a clearance certificate from the Minnesota Department of Human Services. All three forms are required, and may be filed as a unified document with references on the affidavit to the death certificate and clearance certificate, but each may also be recorded individually. Note that the transfer is not completed until all three forms are filed for record.
The beneficiary may complete an online request from the DHS website: https://edocs.dhs.state.mn.us/lfserver/Public/DHS-5893-ENG to obtain the clearance certificate.
Individual counties may require additional information -- check with the local agency responsible for maintaining land records with any questions.

Found the service useful and straightforward. The only recommendation would be to send an e-mail notification to the request or when their package is ready for download. Mine, apparently, was ready within and hour or so after placing the request but did not go back onto the site until a day later to find it was ready.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Application is not well laid out. I guess it does the job but leaves a lot to be desired. Hard to follow
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

My deed has now been recorded. Thank you so very much. I saved about $120.00 by doing this with your document service. Thankfully, I heard about you from a friend and did not go with my Title Company that wanted a fee that seems outrageous because of how simple it was to do. I will definitely "advertise" this service to others.
We appreciate your business and value your feedback. Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

Our firm is working remotely and a lot of court services are limited with the corona-virus shutdowns, but we needed to record a Deed at the last minute. There was no other way we'd could get it done that quick without Deeds.com (staff) helped us work out some kinks and we got it recorded in less than 1 business day! Thank you!
Thank you for your feedback, we really appreciate it. Glad we could help.

Easy to download and use the forms, however two forms needed for my county recording were not included.
Thank you for your feedback Frank. We'll look into finding and including the additional supplemental documents. Sometimes supplemental documents have to be generated by the county's system, specific to the transaction.

I appreciate the very quick response that I received and I am very impressed with the access that you provide to records. I'm still in the process of trying to find out what's there but that will take a bit of time. All in all, you are to be commended for a first class operation.
Thank you!
