Calling Ernest
Hi Ernest,
Its me again. I went to the QC signing this morning. I scaned the docs before leaving several times. When I got the the signer, I defidently told her to sign the doc the way it was on typed. She was once married and they were still using her married name, but she showed me ID with her maiden name. On the QC it had her listed as an AKA. Well, now I have to go back. Is this reason to do an acknowledgement? Or should I call her and ask her to bring ID with her maiden name on it? Please advise.

You rang?r
If I understand the situation correctly, the Quit Claim Deed had the signer listed as "Mary J. Doe AKA Mary S. Jones", and she had ID that said "Mary S. Jones". If that is the case, she should have signed the document "Mary J. Doe AKA Mary S. Jones", EXACTLY as printed on the Deed, ***including the "AKA"***. In your journal, you should have written her name as it appeared on her ID, and she should have signed your journal with the same name as on her ID (so they'd match exactly).
I carry Name / AKA Affidavits for this kind of event. (They're often included as a matter of course in the loan docs we receive from signing services.) They're not recordable (as the Quit Claim Deed IS), but they help aleviate pain from the signing service and/or lender.
"Sign as printed" is A Good Rule. As long as we do that, the signing services are happy. Usually. The exception is the obvious error, such a typo in the printed name. Then we're expected to fix it. (A reasonable expectation, IMHO).
