Our Lien Service submitted another lien to the Santa Clara County Clerk Recorder’s Office yesterday & their normal turn-around-time to return the Original Document is 6-8 weeks, but you can request a Conformed Copy of the original document.
Conformed Copies have all of the recording information and for Santa Clara County will be sent in 2-3 business days after recordation. The fee is $5.00 in addition to the recording fees. Be sure to include an additional copy of the Lien Notice and an additional Self Addressed Stamped Envelope. Also, make a note on the cover sheet that you are requesting a Conforming Copy.
Each County has different turn-around-times and charge different fees for Conformed Copies–often they’re free. For more information, check out the Assessors/Clerks/Recorders section at the bottom right of our webpage.
