Adjusting Co-Buyer's Name Length

If the cobuyer's name is too long, consider using their middle initial instead of their full middle name to ensure it fits within the system. This adjustment should help save the transaction without any issues.

Requesting Correction for ELT Title

To request a correction for the co-buyer's name on your ELT title, fill out a REG 227 form and submit a statement of facts explaining the error in the name. Mention that it was written correctly as URETA-ANGULO on the back of the title but was keyed incorrectly as URETAAGNULO.

Suggested Shortening Method

The suggested way to shorten the cobuyer's name is by removing spaces and middle names, resulting in "Garcia-Covarrubias".

Including Full Name on Registration

To include the co-buyer's full name on your registration, cross out and initial their name on the R/S form to match what was e-filed. If hand-printed in section 4 of the form, leave it as is. Consider crossing off their name on Form 262 if necessary.
