I'm still working on it. I'm surprised that it appears so much information has to be included about beneficiaries.

Might be adequate if I was desperate. Formatting screams amateur hour -- not a legal issue but likely to invite closer scrutiny when filed. Instructions were supposed to be county-specific but directed me to call the recorder to ask them how to fill out part of the form. Not planning to use the form and would not purchase it again. I could probably do better by uploading some examples and the original mortgage from the Recorder's website into Claude along with the transaction-specific information and asking Claude to prepare a more professional release.

Aaron, we’re sorry the form and instructions did not meet your expectations. Your order has been canceled and your payment refunded. We appreciate your feedback and wish you the best with preparing the release in the way that works best for your situation.
