Utah Affidavit of Survivorship: Clearing Title After a Joint Owner's Death
Utah's affidavit of survivorship, also called an affidavit of surviving joint tenant, is governed by Section 57-1-5.1 of the Utah Code. It is used after one owner of jointly held property dies, to update the public record and confirm the surviving owner's title.
How Survivorship Transfers Title in Utah
When property is held in joint tenancy, each owner has a right of survivorship. The deceased owner's interest terminates automatically upon death and passes to the surviving owner or owners by operation of law, without probate. Recording this affidavit discloses that termination in the public record, confirming the survivor's ownership and removing the deceased owner from the chain of title.
What Utah Code § 57-1-5.1 Requires
Under Section 57-1-5.1, the affidavit must cite the interest being terminated; contain a legal description of the property; refer to the recording information of the deed that created the interest; include a copy of the deceased owner's death certificate, or other qualifying government-issued proof of death, attached as an exhibit; and be recorded in the recorder's office for the county where the property is located.
Why Recording the Affidavit Matters
Recording the affidavit maintains a clear chain of title (the property's ownership history), which in turn helps to simplify future sales, refinancing, and other transactions. Each circumstance is unique, so contact an attorney with specific questions or for complex situations.

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!
