I just funded a trust. But all of my executors are out of state. How can i notarize the funding of trust papers if they are out of state because they need to sign?
Generally when funding your revocable trust only you and the current trustee of the trust- which is likely you - would need to sign anything. So, it shouldn't be necessary to get the signature of successor trustees. But, if for some reason a financial institution requires a successor trustee's notarized signature, the successor trustee can have his or her signature notarized in the state in which he or she resides. It does not need to be an Oregon notary.
