Who it is for
Whoever is settling the estate of someone who lived in Kansas. Handed to the bank or other holder. The successor furnishes the affidavit to the entity or person holding the asset.
Not the right fit if
The person didn't live in or own property in Kansas, or a will contest or family dispute means you need an estate attorney. Not a form preparation or legal service.
Why it is different
- Sources, checked November 2026: K.S.A. 59-1507b, Transfer of property by affidavit (Kansas Revisor of Statutes); K.S.A. 59-606, Execution and attestation; self-proved wills (Kansas Revisor of Statutes).
- 5 facts aren't stated on those pages, so the kit says so and links where to check.
What is inside
- Kansas small estate route. Total assets subject to probate worth no more than $75,000 (amended in 2024). Handed to the bank or other holder. The successor furnishes the affidavit to the entity or person holding the asset. Small estate affidavit (Kansas Judicial Council form). The statute says an affidavit in substantial compliance with the Judicial Council's form is sufficient; we didn't open the form itself.
- How a Kansas will had to be signed. Two or more witnesses who saw the testator sign or heard the testator acknowledge the will, signing in the testator's presence. Allowed at signing or later during the lives of the testator and witnesses, before an officer authorized to take acknowledgments and administer oaths. A gift to a witness is void unless two other competent witnesses who get nothing also signed. A witness who would inherit with no will can still take up to that share.
- Kansas estate ledger (Excel). Assets, debts, payments and distributions; it compares the countable assets with $75,000 and marks real estate to ask the court about.
- First 30 days, tracker and letters. The first month in order, a documents and accounts tracker, and plain letters to a bank, a utility and Social Security.
- Still to confirm in Kansas. real estate, waiting period after the death, notary or oath, simplified court procedure: check K.S.A. 59-1507b, Transfer of property by affidavit (Kansas Revisor of Statutes); if the will is handwritten: check K.S.A. 59-606, Execution and attestation; self-proved wills (Kansas Revisor of Statutes).
