Customer ID/Patriot Act/CA

I searched the threads, but still have a question. Who fills in the information regarding the borrower's identification? There are "Descrepancies and Resolution" at the bottom of the page and Completed by ________________. Common sense says someone else fills in the info, but want to be sure before shipping tomorrow. There are copies of indentification included.
TIA

Because I'm checking the ID during the sign up process, I have always filled this out and put in my name as "signing agent".

The first time I came across one, I had the same question as you - since I was the one checking ID, who else could possibly fill this out? My dilemma was "do I put 'notary' or 'signing agent'? Because it wasn't an ack, or a jurat...the only other option was agent. I've since been told by E/O's it was correct to do that.

If that's not correct, somebody tell me quick.

I do the same as you TitleGalCA. But this form is interesting because it asks for TWO forms of identification. Before I go to a signing I'll asked the borrower(s) if they have two forms of ID readily available specifically in order to fill out this document. I sign the document with the title - "Signing Agent"

Thanks to the both of you. This is precisely what I did. I have found no other site where others are so helpful. I don't even visit the others anymore. The help and fun make it worth while!
