signed in wrong color ink...

I'm so mad at myself..... 90% of my signings are in blue. I missed the instructions last night to sign in black. The lender is Advantix (in Cali), but the loan has been sold already to a company in TX. How many of you think it will be a re-sign? I'm just gonna cross my fingers and send them w/o telling on myself (tongue in cheek).

Hello Rhonda, I made the same your mistake one time and they accepted with blue ink. Just call them and let them know what uppend.

I would call the company that hired you and explain what happened. That happened to me once before and I was told not to worry about it. It depends on the company that hired you. If the county recorder won't accept that color, you might have to re-do at least the mortgage. In one of the Wisconsin counties will not accept any documents signed in blue.

jolene.....wi is a black......or [believe it or not] red ink state......while it is true that some counties will look the other way on blue it can only be the signature......if the date is blue they will send it back [ now we all know that the register of deeds doesn't look at all the recordings and some of the clerks just go ahead and record......what the hey the recordings all show up black and the originals are sent back to the signers or lenders or title co's or atty's]

I wouldn't worry about it. Some companies with a first and second, want the second in black, so they don't mix things up. Some want the 'signature card' in black. Other than that most recorders like blue. Unless it's some kind of ink that won't record you'll be okay.

Well, it's official, you're now in the club. Our office now stays well stocked in black rollerball ink pens only.

I am kinda stunned at this string. My original notary was purchased by a boss that was a lawyer in FL. He STRICTLY demanded that ALL notary services were to be done in ONLY blue as the quality of copies had gotten so good that original documents were being given/released to others instead of the orignal being retained. I have retained this throughout my 13 years as a notary and have never had a single notarial act questioned due to ink color. Even my notarial stamp was blue until recently when I discovered the required color for the stamp was black.

Since this was 13 years ago and copiers have improved dramatically since then I can only imagine what must occur if all copies are notarized in black ink. This must be the signing agents true WORST NIGHTMARE .

Re: Confession is better for the soul...

If she confesses to a signing service there will be a re-sign no matter what.
