Campbell County Quitclaim Deed (Married Couple as Grantors) Form

Wyoming does not let a married owner convey the home place on one signature. Wyoming Statutes 34-2-121 voids a conveyance of homestead property unless the owner and the owner's spouse both sign and acknowledge it and the instrument carries the statutory release wording. This Wyoming quitclaim deed is built around that rule: two grantors married to each other, named together in the first numbered section, both signing, with the homestead release printed in the operative clause of every copy rather than in a conditional block.

The signature the homestead statute asks for

Wyoming's homestead protection, in Wyoming Statutes 1-20-101 through 1-20-104 and worth up to $100,000 since the 2023 amendment, attaches to occupied property rather than to the name on the vesting deed. A spouse who never appeared in the chain of title therefore holds something a deed has to reach, so the statute asks for the signature and acknowledgment of the owner and the spouse of the owner, plus the words hereby releasing and waiving all rights under and by virtue of the homestead exemption laws of this state, in substance. The one case the section excepts is a conveyance running directly from one spouse to the other. Where spouses hold as tenants by the entirety, Wyoming Statutes 34-1-140(b) and Lewis v. Wolfe, 2026 WY 63, put the same two names on the grantor side for an independent reason: neither spouse can convey an entirety estate alone.

What a quitclaim measures

The statutory quitclaim form in Wyoming Statutes 34-2-104 turns on two operative words, conveys and quitclaims, and Wyoming Statutes 34-2-105 makes such a deed a sufficient conveyance, release, and quitclaim of every legal and equitable right the grantor then holds. The deed promises nothing about title: not seisin, not freedom from encumbrances, no duty to defend. It reaches no title a grantor picks up afterward unless words extending it are added, and a mortgage, a judgment lien, an easement, or a severed mineral estate survives it untouched. Where two spouses hold interests that differ in kind, one on the record title and one resting on occupancy, a deed measured by all interest each grantor holds reaches both without casting either as a fraction.

Two spouses, two certificates, no conditional blocks

The form recites the pair throughout. The grantor section takes both spouses with their mailing addresses, the grantee section takes the address Wyoming Statutes 34-1-119(a) makes a condition of recording, and a tenancy section takes the ownership form the grantees will hold, which matters because Wyoming presumes no survivorship from co-ownership alone. The operative section performs the conveyance with the statutory words and carries the homestead release. Each spouse then receives a signature line with the printed name blank Sweetwater County and Fremont County publish for names under signatures, and each signature carries its own certificate in the short form of Wyoming Statutes 32-3-115, so the two acknowledgments may be taken on different days, before different officers, in different states. No conditional spouse block appears anywhere, because both spouses are grantors. A married couple conveying a residence that stands in one spouse's name alone presents the married-pair pattern this deed recites, the arrangement customers search as a husband and wife quitclaim deed or a spousal quit claim deed. The form is not set up as a single-grantor deed, an entity or trustee conveyance, or a deed for two co-owners who are not married to each other.

At the Wyoming counter

Recording happens with the county clerk of the county where the land lies, at the statewide rate of $12 for the first page and $3 for each page after it. Wyoming levies no transfer tax and no documentary stamps. The clerk does insist on the sworn Statement of Consideration on the Wyoming State Board of Equalization form: Wyoming Statutes 34-1-142(b) keeps a transfer instrument off the record until the completed statement arrives, while subsection (c) lets the amount and terms be left out for listed categories, nominal transfers between spouses or between parent and child among them. Missing it stops acceptance at the counter, not the deed's effect between the parties.

The package delivers the blank fillable deed laid out for Wyoming county scanners, with the two inch recording band left clear at the top of page one, a completed example filled in for a Laramie County conveyance, and a guide covering each section, the homestead and entirety rules, notarization including Wyoming's remote options, and recording. The materials are informational and are not legal advice.
