What is the Tennessee Transfer Toolkit?
I know how overwhelming it can be figuring out how to transfer the assets of a loved one can be. There are so many things you have to think about, and knowing where to find the proper documents you need can be stressful.
This is why I created the Tennessee Transfer Toolkit!
This toolkit will help you to transfer a loved one asset’s when full probate is not needed. It provides you with the resources and guidance you need to easily transfer the assets of a loved one.
WHAT IS INCLUDED:
Tenncare Release
After a TennCare recipient’s death, TennCare will initiate an estate recovery process to reimburse funds spent on the patient’s care.
Real Estate Affidavit of Heirship
Used to create a presumption of ownership in property after someone passes away. It creates a chain of title in the land from a deceased person to a living one(s).
Letter to Bank
This letter may be sent to a bank or credit union where your deceased loved one held accounts such as checking, savings, money market, certificates of deposit, etc.
Letter for Wages
If your loved one was employed at the time of their passing and you believe that they are owed a final paycheck, you can use this letter to request that money from their employer.
Unclaimed property
This tool will help you to see if your loved one has any unclaimed property. Depending on your relationship to your loved one, you may be able to claim any funds that the State holds on behalf of your deceased loved one.
Vehicle Transfer
This document allows the family to obtain title to any vehicles owned by the Decedent. Once title is transferred to a living person, the family may keep the vehicle or sell it to a third-party. (See sale after transfer form.)
