Residency Affidavit

When a nonresident sells Rhode Island realty and associated tangible personal property, the buyer must deduct and withhold a percentage of the total amount paid. The buyer may rely on the seller’s determination of residency only if the seller furnishes the buyer with a residency affidavit. This residency affidavit must be completed by the seller and made part of all closings when any Rhode Island realty and associated tangible property are sold. In the absence of this affidavit, the buyer must withhold. Every buyer subject to withholding is liable for the amounts withheld or required to be withheld and the amounts are a lien on the property until paid. The buyer should retain the original affidavit with the other records and must produce it for the Division of Taxation, if requested. A copy of the affidavit should be given to the seller. The buyer should not send the affidavit to the Tax Division.

Conveyance Tax

The conveyance tax return form or CVYT-1 form must be filed with the Rhode Island Division of Taxation. Unless noted otherwise, completed forms should be sent to: Rhode Island Division of Taxation One Capitol Hill Providence, RI 02908

What is the Rhode Island Correction Deed?

Use the corrective deed to correct an error in a previously recorded deed of conveyance in Rhode Island.

Correcting an error in a recorded deed helps prevent problems that might arise when the current owner tries to sell the property. The best method for correction is to prepare and record a new document, a so-called corrective deed. This document does not convey title; instead, it confirms the prior conveyance of the property.

Apart from supplying the correct information, the new deed must state the reason for correcting, and it must reference the prior deed by title, date, and recording number. The original grantor must sign again, thus confirming the conveyance to the same grantee. Generally, corrective deeds are used to address minor errors in a deed, such as typos, accidentally omitted suffixes or middle initials in names, and other minor omissions. A defect in the acknowledgment might also be corrected with such a deed. When in doubt about the gravity of an error, consult with a lawyer.

For certain changes, a correction deed may not be appropriate. Adding or removing a grantee, for example, or altering the manner in which title is held, or making material changes to the legal description, especially deleting a portion of the originally transferred property, may all require a new deed of conveyance instead of a corrective deed. When correcting the legal description, both the grantor and the grantee should sign the corrective deed to avoid any doubt regarding the conveyed property.
