Trusts

[Rookie]

Good point. To answer your question, no, I'm not 100% sure that Grant did my trust properly. Mine was a little different because I have a minor that needed to be included on the trust in the event something happens before he turns eighteen. Am I more comfortable with Grant over a website? Yes, and that's why I chose to spend the extra money. Like I said in my previous post, it's his money.

Can anyone answer this for me about my new trust. My brother is on my trust and lives in another state. Can I let him use the NFA item and leave it in that state? Do we have to notify the ATF that the NFA item is going from state to state?

thanks.

I won't answer your first question. Your second question, it depends on the type of NFA item.

 

[Menace67]

Asking about SBR and suppressor.

 

[DaKruiser]

SBR, yes, you need to fill out a https://www.atf.gov/files/forms/download/atf-f-5320-20.pdf

Check out the faq at atf.gov, it will answer most of your questions.

Thanks, I have looked on their site and can't find anything about suppressors maybe I'm just missing it? couldn't find a form saying you have to fill anything out with transporting suppressors across state lines.

any help is greatly appreciated!

That's because there is no regulation.

Once you have a trust set up. How do you enter/add a SRB already registered to an individual(me)? Resend form 1 and $200.00 with the trust name with going thru a FFL/SOT dealer, or can I do it all myself (form 1 & $200)?

You would do it from you, to your trust on a form 4, no FFL/SOT needed.

It's another form four and a tax stamp. No way around that.

As for why I went with a lawyer, I can call him and get advice on how to do things. And about what I can and can't do. The document I have is signed and notarized and will stand up in a court of law. And if it doesn't I have a lawyer to go back to. I used Grant Liston. If you go back a few pages there is another lawyer that as stepped forward to do trusts. I have no experience with him. Check him out. his price seems lower.

Thank you MontereyC6 and 1911ly for the replies Will be looking to get a trust set up. And then adding my SBR. Then more NFA goodies!

???? There is no requirement in the state of Indiana for a trust to be notarized.

Correct, and we've been over why some think it's best to have it notarized.

 

[1911ly]

Notary is not required. It just adds an extra level of legitimacy to your trust. Less chance it could be contested. It is up to you.

 

[Yamadog35]

I rarely chime in here. However, to clear-up any confusion, having a trust notarized is not required pursuant to Indiana law. However, it creates a presumption that the trust was in fact signed by the grantor. Moreover, a notary is verifying the signature pursuant to their authority. Also, the notary is most likely a disinterested party. When the trust is administered, the grantor will be dead and not be able to testify as to the authenticity of the signature. This makes it much more difficult for someone to contest the actual signing of the trust. If anyone has any questions, please feel free to email me at liston@carsonboxberger.com I hope all is well.

Quote from one of the attorneys providing this service (post #23 in this thread). Makes sense to me. I got my trust through Grant and it had the notary section on the document. Took me ten minutes and a very small fee to run into a UPS store to get the notary done.

My bank has a notary on staff and it's free. Might want to check your bank.
