If you are residing in Arkansas, an Arkansas Self-Proving Affidavit Form is a specialized form which can be added onto the will of an individual in order to confirm the authenticity of the will. It prevents any other party from casting doubt over the legitimacy in court. If this form is added to the will, it will also considerably speed up the probate process in court as it means that witnesses would not need to attend the court in person to testify. The signatures of the witnesses on the Arkansas Self-Proving Affidavit will be enough for the judge.
It is important to note that in Arkansas, the individual drafting the will does not need to sign the Self-Proving Affidavit Form. Only two witnesses are required to sign the form and they must do so before a notary public. When this is done, the form should be added onto the will as an additional document.
