In the presence of the testator, and in the presence of each other,we sign this will as witnesses to the testator's signing. //// //// //// Page 3 of 4 Initials: M � � Date: '�122�)3 : �. � c- sti ZZ��3 IN5TRUCTIONS: Self-Proving Affidavit Your state allows you to make your will self-proving. Doing this has absolutely nothing to do with your will's legality—a properly signed and witnessed will is legal whether or not it is self-proving. However, by making your will self-proving,you give the court additional assurance that the will was made by you. This may speed the admission of your will to probate and make things easier for your executor, especially if none of your witnesses can be located after your death. To make your will self-proving,you and your witnesses must sign the attached Acknowledgment and Af�idavit in front of a notary public. Then you should attach them to your will. Follow these steps: 1. Sign and witness your will exactly as described in the instructions accompanying the will. 2. Either have a notary present at the will signing, or find one later. Either way,you and your witnesses must personally appear before the notary and identify yourselves with a driver's license, birth certificate,passport or other official identification. (The notary can tell you which documents to bring.) 3. If the notary has his or her own form for making your will self-proving, use that form and follow the notary's instructions. 4. If you use our self-proving forms,put your name in the blank space on the Acknowledgment,put your witnesses' names in the blank spaces on the Affidavit, and give both pages to the nota.ry. He or she will have you and your witnesses swear to the truth of the statements on the forms. (These are basically the same statements you used when the will itself was being signed and witnessed.)The notary will then date and sign the Acknowledgment and Affidavit and put his or her notary seal on them. 5. Sta.ple both forms to your will. If you ever make a new will,you should also redo your self-proving affidavit. REMINDER:You and your witnesses must sign the will in addition to signing this affidavit. The affidavit and the will are two separate documents.
