How do I get my forms, are they emailed?
Immediately after you submit payment, the Suffolk County forms you order will be available for download directly from your account. You can then download the forms to your computer. If you do not already have an account, one will be created for you as part of the order process, and your login details will be provided to you. If you encounter any issues accessing your forms, please reach out to our support team for assistance. Forms are NOT emailed to you.
What does "validated/updated" mean?
This indicates the most recent date when at least one of the following occurred:
- Updated: The document was updated or changed to remain compliant.
- Validated: The document was examined by an attorney or staff, or it was successfully recorded in Suffolk County using our eRecording service.
Are these forms guaranteed to be recordable in Suffolk County?
Yes. Our form blanks are guaranteed to meet or exceed all formatting requirements set forth by Suffolk County including margin requirements, content requirements, font and font size requirements.
Can the Correction Deed forms be re-used?
Yes. You can re-use the forms for your personal use. For example, if you have more than one property in Suffolk County that you need to transfer you would only need to order our forms once for all of your properties in Suffolk County.
What are supplemental forms?
Often when a deed is recorded, additional documents are required by New York or Suffolk County. These could be tax related, informational, or even as simple as a coversheet. Supplemental forms are provided for free with your order where available.
What type of files are the forms?
All of our Suffolk County Correction Deed forms are PDFs. You will need to have or get Adobe Reader to use our forms. Adobe Reader is free software that most computers already have installed.
Do I need any special software to use these forms?
You will need to have Adobe Reader installed on your computer to use our forms. Adobe Reader is free software that most computers already have installed.

No. The blank forms are downloaded to your computer and you fill them out there, at your convenience.
Can I save the completed form, email it to someone?
Yes, you can save your deed form at any point with your information in it. The forms can also be emailed, blank or complete, as attachments.
Are there any recurring fees involved?
No. Nothing to cancel, no memberships, no recurring fees.
Correction deeds are sometimes called confirmatory instruments. As such, they confirm and perfect an existing title created earlier and remove any defects from it, but they do not pass title on their own. They make explicit reference to the instrument that is being corrected by indicating its execution and recording date, the place of recording and the number under which the document is filed. They also need to identify the error or errors by type before supplying the correction in the subsequent body of the deed.
A new real property transfer report, RP-5217-pdf (or RP-5217NYC), with original signatures must accompany all deeds in New York, including correction deeds; the same goes for the tax affidavit TP-584, which both seller and buyer must sign. Forms are available at the county recording office or can be ordered online (but not downloaded). As a correction, the transaction may be exempt from transfer tax. Be sure to include proof that the transfer tax was paid, either by including the original cover page of the prior deed, or by providing an affidavit stating that transfer tax was paid with the prior document.
Furthermore, counties often require a cover page, which may be specific to the county or city and provided on their websites. It serves to identify the document more easily and may be called "recording and endorsement (cover) page." New recording fees per page must be paid for a correction instrument.
(New York CD Package includes form, guidelines, and completed example)

Was driven to this site by the county website. It took a bit of work having to create an account, etc. The example was useful; however the example only showed both parties in the same county, nor did the instructions mention anything about differing counties. This caused an oversight on my part.
Your insights are invaluable to us and help us strive for better service. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts.

Received the documents, but the explanation and process is not as straightforward as I would have liked. The Instructions and Sample document were not always easy to follow.
I may just have a real estate lawyer perform the task.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!

Great service with all the added resources on the form I requested.
Question: How long do the forms stay available on my account?
Thanks for the feedback Felicia. Our goal is to keep the documents available in your account indefinitely. It's a good idea to download the documents and store them yourself just in case.

This is an option for recording that worked flawlessly with my county government. Given Covid19 has closed county offices to the public as well as the personal kiosks options to record shrunk dramatically. I recommend Deeds.Com for your recording needs.
Thank you for your feedback. We really appreciate it. Have a great day!
