| One point about acknowledgments. The date of the document is immaterial. The date it was signed does not matter either. When an acknowledgment is given the document could have already been signed. The signer is acknowledging that he or she indeed signed the document willingly with knowledge of its purpose. The notarization represents that you determined this do be true on the date the acknowledgment was made by the signer. In effect, that is the only date you must be concerned with. If the lender or TC asks for a printed date to be changed , make sure it is a directive in writing and that the signer initials the change. If the signer is to insert a different date than the closing date, make sure you have a written directive as well. You might be on the hook without it. |
