Indiana House Bill 1114 Results in Change to Indiana Mortgage

As of July 1, 2006, many of our customers originating loans in Indiana may have noticed the following statement at the end of the mortgage:

I affirm, under the penalties for perjury, that I have taken reasonable care
to redact each Social Security number in this document, unless required by law.
__________________
Signature of Preparer

Indiana House Bill 1114 requires this statement to be added at the end of recordable documents, effective July 1, 2006. In addition, H.B. 1114 also provides that County Form 170, which is a declaration that the preparer of a mortgage signs stating that all Social Security numbers in the mortgage have been redacted, would no longer be required effective upon the Bill's passage in March, 2006. However, Document Systems, Inc. elected to keep County Form 170 in Indiana loan packages until the above statement was added to the Indiana mortgages.
