Iuput held a variety of titles including High Priest of Amun, generalissimo and army-leader and Governor of Upper Egypt.[1]
It is not known who Iuput's mother was, but it is assumed that Lady Tashepenbast was his sister. Nimlot B and Osorkon I were (half-)brothers of Iuput. Iuput's daughter by an unknown wife was named Nesikhonsupakhered. She was the wife of Djedkhonsiufankh, who was a fourth priest of Amun.[2]
