The testator must declare that the oral statement is their will before two disinterested witnesses. One of the witnesses must put the will into writing within 30 days of the declaration and submit the document to the probate court within six months of the death.
Grounds on which a Will could be declared invalid in Indiana include lack of testamentary capacity, undue influence, fraud, improper execution, revocation by a subsequent Will, or other technical issues.
The will must be in writing, signed by the testator or by someone else at the testators direction and in their presence. It must also be signed by at least two witnesses. The will must be notarized.
Unlike some states, Indiana does not require wills to be filed with a government entity during the testators lifetime. However, after the testator passes away, the will must be submitted to the probate court in the county where they resided.
If they are a married couple with children, often both wills also state that their children will receive the remaining property after both spouses are dead.) Mirror wills can sometimes also contain an agreement between the spouses that neither spouse will revoke their individual will.

In order for a will to be considered valid under Indiana law, the testator must be at least 18 years old, have testamentary capacity (be of sound mind), and freely sign the will in front of two witnesses. Additionally, the will must be written or printed in order to be legally binding.
When you get married, nothing is automatically changed in your will. That means whatever was in your will before you got married is not changed when you are legally married unless you update your will.
