The Washington Declaration of Proposed Guardian (Non-Certified) is a legal document that declares an individual's intention to become the legal guardian of a minor child or incapacitated adult. The declaration is used to begin the process of establishing a guardianship. It can be used when there is no will or other guardianship document in place. The Washington Declaration of Proposed Guardian (Non-Certified) document includes the proposed guardian's name, address, and signature along with the name, address, and birthdate of the minor or incapacitated adult. The document must be signed in front of a notary and be accompanied by a medical certificate of an individual's capacity to serve as guardian. The Washington Declaration of Proposed Guardian (Non-Certified) is available in two forms: the Standard form and the DDD form. The Standard form is used for general guardianship matters, while the DDD form is used for guardianship matters related to the Developmental Disabilities Administration (DDA). Both forms must be signed in front of a notary and be accompanied by a medical certificate of an individual's capacity to serve as guardian.
