[MI] What exemption form do I need to record a gifted quit claim deed?

I have a quit claim deed that my sister signed, gifting me a piece of property with a building on it. There are back taxes, which I know about. The county said I don’t have to pay those yet. The Register of Deeds said I was missing—what I think she called—an exception form, maybe because the property was gifted for $1. Do you know what I need?

Typically this transfer may be exempt, and you wouldn’t need to pay the regular fees for a sale. An exemption form should be completed and filed with the deed (Mo. Rev. Stat. § 59.310). Let me know if you have any other questions.

I had this form filled out and went to the county. She said I didn’t have an exemption form. What is that?

I understand how confusing it can be to deal with forms and exemptions. What type of exemption were you trying to apply for?

I had the quit claim deed I downloaded from this website.

Have you already submitted any other documents related to this exemption?

Maybe it was an exception form.

Is there anything else the lawyer should know?

No. I downloaded the forms, had them signed and witnessed with a notary. I took them to Wayne County Deeds Office. She said I was missing either an exemption or an exception form. I think it was because the property was a gift for a dollar. I’m not sure though.
