Request and track the Genesis Finance title packet to Tennessee
Tennessee lists a Leased Vehicle Owner's Authorization to Lessee for a long-term lease. The state separately warns that an ordinary power of attorney does not replace that form unless it contains the required authorization language.
Do not assume a generic power of attorney is enough. Tennessee says it is not a substitute for the lessor-authorization form unless it includes that form's language.

Where the two processes meet
The lessor controls delivery. Tennessee controls acceptance.
- 01Start with Tennessee
Send the Tennessee lessor-authorization form to the leasing company and ask for its tax number, title document, and any separate power of attorney needed for signatures.
- 02Open the Genesis Finance request
Ask the destination motor vehicle office for its requirements, then update every applicable address in the Genesis Finance account before opening a state-to-state title transfer.
- 03Use the official channel
Log in to Genesis Finance, open Title Services, and choose State Title Transfer. Genesis says submitting online also gives you its Title Tracker. You can mail the request instead to Genesis Finance, Attn: Titles Department, 6100 W. Plano Pkwy., Ste 2000, Plano, TX 75093. For questions about your account, Genesis Finance customer service is 844-363-7477 (Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. Eastern).
- 04Confirm usable receipt
The lessor stays on the title and supplies its authorization, ownership document, and Tennessee tax number when required. The lessee is named on the registration and takes the packet to the county clerk.
