Certificate Releasing Connecticut Succession And Estate Tax Liens is a document issued by the Connecticut Department of Revenue Services (DRS) that provides proof that the estate tax lien on a deceased person's assets has been released. The Certificate Releasing Connecticut Succession And Estate Tax Liens is required when transferring the ownership of real or personal property owned by the deceased. There are two types of Certificate Releasing Connecticut Succession And Estate Tax Liens: a Certificate of Tax Lien Release and a Certificate of Tax Lien Satisfaction. The Certificate of Tax Lien Release is issued when the Connecticut estate taxes have been paid in full and the lien is released. The Certificate of Tax Lien Satisfaction is issued when the lien is satisfied by other means, such as the sale of the assets or the transfer of the assets to a trust. The Certificate Releasing Connecticut Succession And Estate Tax Liens must be submitted to the DRS for approval before the transfer of ownership of the deceased's assets can be completed.
