Arizona Revised Statutes § 33-1008

Free Arizona Statutory Lien Waiver Forms (A.R.S. § 33-1008)

Arizona requires strict statutory forms for lien and bond waivers. A.R.S. § 33-1008 prescribes the exact language for all four waiver types. A waiver that deviates from the statutory form is not enforceable to release lien or bond rights. QuickWaiver auto-locks the statutory language so your Arizona subs sign the compliant version every time.

The Four Required Arizona Waiver Types

Conditional Waiver on Progress Payment

Signed before or at the time payment is delivered. Becomes effective only when the payment actually clears — the safest form for a subcontractor to sign.

Unconditional Waiver on Progress Payment

States that a progress payment has already been received. Effective the instant it is signed — do not sign unless the funds are in hand.

Conditional Waiver on Final Payment

Final payment version of the conditional form. Waives all remaining lien and bond rights on the project once the final check clears.

Unconditional Waiver on Final Payment

Final payment received in full. Immediately releases all lien and payment bond rights on the project.

Why exact phrasing is legally mandatory

A.R.S. § 33-1008 makes the prescribed waiver forms the exclusive means to release lien and payment bond rights on an Arizona project. Arizona courts strictly enforce this rule — an ad-hoc release that omits the required NOTICE language or the specified conditional/unconditional structure will not extinguish the underlying claim rights.

The practical implication for General Contractors and lenders: draws are commonly held or rejected when waivers in the package are not on the statutory form. QuickWaiver removes that risk by locking the § 33-1008 body text and letting you fill only the dynamic fields (claimant, amount, project, through date).
