[IA] How do I add specific language to a state’s small estate affidavit?

According to the credit union where my father’s remaining dollars are, the small estate affidavit needs to include any applicable debt owed to the Iowa Department of Human Services for benefits the deceased person received has either been paid or will be paid by these funds, and any applicable taxes due to the Iowa Department of Revenue have either been paid or will be paid from these funds. My father died in January 2023, and I assure you all has been taken care of. How do I add this language to Iowa's affidavit?

It sounds like you’re having a technical, not a legal, issue. Unfortunately, I can’t help with technical program issues—only legal questions. For technical help, you’ll need to reach out to an IT expert. Is there anything else I can help answer legally?

I’m sorry to hear about your father. Have you already completed the small estate affidavit?

I cannot get it to print with that on it.

Hi there! My name is Seth and I am a licensed attorney. Please tell me how I can help you today.

I’m trying to close out my father’s account and need a small estate affidavit for collection of under $10,000. He passed away 1/17/2023 and to the best of our knowledge all debts have been paid. The credit union needs the affidavit to state those two statements about DHS and taxes, but I can’t get the letter to print that way.

Yes, and I can forward it to you, if you have an email.

I don’t handle billing issues. Please reach out to the organization you signed up with for that. I wish you the best. Take care.
