Transfers must be completed within 30 days of sale or gift to avoid late penalties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-top-5-title-transfer-mistakes\"><strong>Top 5 Title Transfer Mistakes<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-missing-or-incorrect-signatures\"><strong>1. Missing or Incorrect Signatures<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Even a single missing middle initial will trigger rejection. Always compare each signature to the name printed on the title.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-vin-typos\"><strong>2. VIN Typos<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A single wrong digit in the VIN halts processing.

Skipped Notarization<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Bonded titles, out-of-state transfers, and certain gift affidavits require notarization.

Odometer Disclosure Oversights<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Vehicles under ten years old need odometer readings.

Insufficient Proof for Gift Transfers<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Gift transfers require PS20054 plus proof of relationship (birth\/marriage certificates).
