Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Missing Signature: All sections that require a signature must be signed; unsigned forms are rejected.
• Incorrect Payment Details: Include the exact fee amount and a valid, signed check or money order; cash is not accepted.
• Incomplete Address: Provide the exact mailing address where you want the records sent; a PO Box may cause delays.
• Wrong Record Type: Tick only the records you need; selecting unnecessary records can increase processing time.
