Bulletin: Introduction of Power of Attorney and Revocations in EFS

Enhancements to the Form 17 Charge and Release

  • The new forms provide the ability to submit Powers of Attorney, Representation Agreements and Revocations.
  • The new forms introduce new functionality. When Power of Attorney or Representation Agreement in the Form 17 Charge or Revocation of Power of Attorney/Representation Agreement in the Form 17 Release is selected, the form automatically enters "Not Applicable" in the PID Number, legal description and transferee fields.
  • When a transaction not requiring transferee information, such as Municipal Permits and similar filings, is selected, the form will automatically enter "Not Applicable" in the transferee fields. This text can be typed over where necessary. Only one Nature of Interest may be selected in each separate form for these types of transactions.
