Document Updates: Placement of Attention Information on Recordable Documents

Sep 15, 2020

Topics: Document Updates

The information printing in the “After Recording Return To:” section of recordable documents, such as security instruments and assignments, is currently ordered as follows:

Return Documents to Company Name (field 1769)
Return Documents to Street Address (field 1763)
Return Documents to City (field 1767), Return Documents to State (field 1771) Return Documents to Zip (field 1771)
[And if the field has a value:
Attn: Return Documents to ATTN: (field 1765)]

We will be changing these documents over time to match the standards outlined by the U.S. Postal Service (see https://pe.usps.com/businessmail101?ViewName=DeliveryAddress), by moving the attention line up to print immediately below the company name field and above the postal address:

Return Documents to Company Name (field 1769)
[If the field has a value:
Attn: Return Documents to ATTN: (field 1765)]
Return Documents to Street Address (field 1763)
Return Documents to City (field 1767), Return Documents to State (field 1771) Return Documents to Zip (field 1771)

The first changes will take effect on September 15, 2020. Questions or concerns about these changes should be directed to Client Support at 1.800.497.3584.
