You can have it notarized in any state. In the state you sign, a notary would witness and notarize.

I’m sorry to hear about the passing of your sister. Were you named as the executor or administrator of her estate in Hawaii?
She did not have anyone. I was her only emergency contact.
Lexi, Chatbot
In which state are you currently located and seeking to have the Small Estate Affidavit notarized?
Kansas.
Lexi, Chatbot
Is there anything else the Estate Lawyer should know before I connect you? Rest assured they’ll be able to help with notarizing the Small Estate Affidavit in Kansas.
That is my main issue.

It does not tell me where to send it once the document is notarized. Do you know where I send it?
Dan
To the probate court, but I would get specific directions from the court clerk and use overnight mail or a courier.
I want to make sure everything is clear and easy to understand. If you'd like me to explain anything further or have follow-up questions, just let me know. If everything makes sense and you're comfortable with the information, feel free to reply with “all set.” Thanks!
all set
