Hi sugarfoot,

Your sister cannot take your mother's name off the deed after her death by using a quitclaim deed. She needs to file an affidavit of heirship in the county recorder's office. As far as removing your sister's name from the property is concerned, you need to consult an attorney in that regard. If she signs a quitclaim deed and transfers the property to you now, she may not remain eligible for medicaid benefits.

Thanks
