I may sell my firearm to a relative and I need to know if that is legal and if I have to go through a gundealer to perform the background check to make it legal. Is there a change in ownership form? Does it need to be submitted to the police department?

Yep it is legal. You don’t have to perform a background check on your relative. You can’t knowingly sell a felon a firearm though, obviously.
Check Arizona law 13-3108.
Pretty lengthily but it states Arizona will not abridge the right of individual except as stated in section c.
Transfer etc except to a minor, is open to each individual.
I would do a background check of whom I was transferring or selling the weapon to for my own safety and record it all for future references just in case the weapon was stolen.
