Before I sign a waiver of notice form, what does it mean to waive notice of the hearing on the petition and notice of formal proof of the will?

It means that you don't have to know when the hearing takes place. It also means that you are not contesting the validity of the will.

Deed and title are they the same when one spouse's name is on one but both names are on the title?

Estate Planning lawyer at Minor, Bandonis & Haggerty P.C.
There's some confusion here; there is no separate document that is "title" to real property. A deed is a document which transfers real property; it's recorded in the county records. What the county records say is about 90% of the argument; rarely can there be ownership of real property which does not conform to the county records. A "title," as for example to a car, is a document that shows ownership. To transfer a car, you have to sign over the title, and the new owner has to get a new title issued in their name. It's a completely different system. Then, there's manufactured homes. They are personal property, like a car, and they have a title, handled through the Building Codes Division. So, you could have a manufactured home, with title in both spouses, sitting on land which is only in the name of one spouse. If the spouse who owns the land passes away, his or her ownership of the land would transfer according to his or her will, in a probate. If that is your case, fix it now, before either spouse passes away.
