Required Documents

  • County Superior Court probate packet or current probate forms

    The Arizona Judicial Branch publishes generic probate forms and warns that each court may have preferred forms. Start with the county clerk or court packet before filing.

  • Certified death certificate

    Arizona small-estate real-property affidavits require a certified death certificate attachment. Probate filings and asset transfers commonly require certified copies; verify accepted copy count with the county court, recorder, clerk, or holder.

  • Original will and codicils

    If a will exists, confirm county instructions for filing the original will with the Superior Court or attaching it to a qualifying real-property affidavit claim by devise.

  • Probate Information Form for Decedent's Estate(Form 11 / AOCPBPAFORM11F)

    Use when required by the court for a decedent's estate matter; county forms and filing counters may add local instructions.

  • Order to Personal Representative(Form 1 / AOCPBPAFORM1F)

    The court enters an order directing fiduciary duties after appointment. Treat it as an appointment-stage document, not a user-created filing packet.

  • Notice, waiver, consent, and proof-of-service materials

    Notice and waiver requirements depend on the probate path, interested persons, county packet, and court orders. Verify before filing.

The Treasurer page links online tax payment, account search, tax lien resources, tax rates, and reports. Treasurer Web lists Diane Berube, mailing address, phone, fax, and warns that data is believed accurate and dependable but has no express or implied warranty; taxable values are for assessment purposes only and may not reflect current market value. The FAQ says tax amounts can be obtained by phone or the Treasurer website, gives due dates and delinquency timing, and says delinquent tax liens may be sold without giving a purchaser possession rights. Paydici says property-tax payments require the account number/ID from the tax notice and investor payments cannot be processed through the online tax portal.
