How do I get a land patent?

The process is known as bringing your land patent forward. 

It is definitely something that anyone could do; it just takes a bit of time to research the chain of title and to collect the certified copies.

1. Obtain a certified copy of your proof of ownership, usually a warranty deed or quitclaim deed.
2. Using the legal description from your deed, obtain from the Bureau of Land Management Records Division three certified copies of the original land patent that corresponds to your land.
3. Obtain one certified copy of every title transfer starting from your purchase and going backwards to the original land patent.
4. Create a package containing your documents.
• A copy of your certified copy of your deed or other proof of ownership. 
• Summary of chain of title.
• Notice page.
• Copy of a certified copy of the patent that relates to your land.
5. Staple the pages of your package together and post the package on a bulletin board at your county courthouse or any other public building for 61 days.
   
6. Record your package with your county recorder. 
   

Your patent process is complete.
