If you have been instructed to get the document notarized or see it in writing on the document, then make sure to hire a local notary.

Step 4 - Submit Special Checklist Summary Of Stock Transfer Requirements (Scl-2). to the relevant office

This is most often the local probate court where the decedent (person who passed away) is domiciled (permanently resides) or the institution involved with this particular form (e.g. a bank). Some offices allow you to submit forms online, other’s don’t, and we while we generally recommend going in-person to expedite the process, sometimes that simply isn’t an option.

It’s also a generally good idea to establish a positive working relationship with any probate clerk (unfortunately there’s enough people & process out there making things more difficult and unnecessarily confusing for them), so a best practice is to simply ask the probate clerk proactively exactly how and where they’d prefer you to submit all forms.

Different probate forms or processes can require different deadlines or response times for completing the appropriate form.

While some steps in the process are bound to specific deadlines (like petitioning for probate, having to submit an inventory of assets, or filing applicable notices to creditors and beneficiaries), many probate forms or processes are not tied to a specific deadline since the scope of work can vary based on situational factors or requirements involved.

Either way, there are a bunch of practical reasons why personal representatives should work to complete each step as thoroughly and quickly as possible when completing probate in Hawaii.

5 reasons you should submit this form as quickly as possible:

1. The sooner you begin, the faster Hawaii can allow heirs and beneficiaries to get their share of assets subject to probate. Acting promptly can also decrease the costs & overall mental fatigue through an otherwise burdensome process.

2. In general, creditors of an estate usually have around 3-6 months from the time you file notice to creditors to file any claims for debt against the deceased’s assets. If they don’t, then that debt is forfeited (and more importantly, the executor won’t be held personally responsible). So doing this sooner means you have a better idea of who is owed what and ensures you won’t get a surprise collector months later.

3. Not filing a will within 30 days (on average) could mean that the probate process proceeds according to intestate laws (laws that govern what happens to someone's stuff without a will) or is subject to unnecessary supervision by the probate court. And if you aren't directly related to the deceased (a.k.a. next of kin), this could also mean you lose your inheritance.

4. It’s important to file any necessary state tax returns on behalf of the deceased or estate by the following tax season in Hawaii. If you don’t, you could owe penalties and interest. This also includes any necessary federal tax returns such as Forms 1040, 1041, or even a Form 706 estate tax return.

5. If a house in the State of Hawaii is left empty (or abandoned) for a while, insurance can get dicey. For example, if the house burns down and no one has been there for a year, an insurance company may get out of paying your claim.

Where certificates are to be sold or distributed to a particular third party, the endorsement should include the exact name, address and Social Security number of the transferee. 2. The requirements generally do not distinguish between transfers to distributees and transfers to purchasers. To simplify distribution it is therefore suggested that a transfer to a beneficiary be by a deed of distribution (here the stock assignment) rather than by a certified copy of the final court decree of distribution. 3. Generally speaking, once an estate is closed it is not possible to obtain a certified copy of Letters. This can cause problems where it is discovered that not all of the securities have been transferred to the beneficiaries until after the closing of the estate. Under such circumstances, it may be possible to reopen the estate for the sole purpose of allowing the issuance of Letters in connection with the transfer of certain stocks followed by a forthwith closing of the estate. H AW. REV. STAT. § 560:3-1008 (2007). The better practice, however, is to not close the estate until all securities have cleared transfer. 4. The requirements for transfer are different for Canada and other foreign countries. 5. Where Vermont, Hawaii or the District of Columbia are involved as the state of incorporation or the location of the transfer agent, additional documentation is often necessary since they have not adopted either the Uniform Simplification of Fiduciary Transfers Act or Article VIII of the Uniform Commercial Code. The D.C. Inheritance and Estate Tax Non- Resident Affidavit and Waiver Request is obtained from Department of Finance and Revenue, 300 Indiana Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20001. 6. If the personal representative is a corporate fiduciary, the additional requirements for transfer by any corporation must be satisfied. 7. In the case of a deceased or resigned trustee, additional evidence of the power of the successor trustee to act will be required. 8. Personal representative includes conservator, but not special administrator. If the personal representative's Letters limit his power to act, a court order may be required in connection with the transfer of securities. 9. A discussion of stock transfer requirements is contained in: Martin Torosian, Securities Transfer: Principles and Procedures, (4th ed. 1983), available from the New York Institute of Finance, 70 Pine Street, New York, New York 10270-8003.
