The Department of Revenue Administration is amending administrative rules, Rev 807.03 intro. (f) and Rev 2903.03(d), Deletion of Witnessed Signature Requirement for Filing Real Estate Transfer Tax Declaration of Consideration Forms and for Power of Attorney.

Rev 807.03 (f) is being amended by deleting the words “and witnessed” regarding a signature consistent with the change to RSA 78-B:10, I (b), effective July 18, 2016. The statute no longer requires Real Estate Transfer Tax declaration of consideration forms to contain a witnessed signature.

Rev 2903.03 is being amended to delete paragraph (d) regarding the requirement that a taxpayer executing a power of attorney sign in the presence of 2 disinterested witnesses.
