What should I do if the property tax bill lists names other than or in addition to my or my spouses name as owners of the property?
You should attach verification of the claimant’s and/or spouse’s ownership percentage (or verification that the claimant or spouse has a life estate). Verification may be a copy of a deed, a land contract, a life estate agreement (which is generally provided in a warranty deed or quit claim deed), a divorce judgment, a final judgment in an estate, or a trust instrument.
