How does an Ally Auto title transfer to West Virginia start?

Ask the lender for the published letter and title copy or electronic-lien record, then confirm the exact DMV recipient before it sends anything. Then follow Ally Auto's current channel: Use the PDP Services fax channel published in Ally's account FAQ. Lease customers should contact Ally for a power of attorney when one is required.

What should I ask Ally Auto to send?

West Virginia lists a title copy or electronic-lien printout plus a lender letter with the vehicle and mailing details when the lienholder keeps the title. Confirm the exact document, state recipient, fee, handling time, and evidence of sending before the request leaves.

What if Ally Auto says it sent the title but West Virginia cannot find it?

Ask Ally Auto what title document was sent, the send date, exact recipient, and available delivery evidence. Then ask the West Virginia office whether it received and associated that document with the transaction. Sending, delivery, and agency acknowledgement are separate milestones.

What can I keep in the saved lender handoff?

Keep the route-specific request worksheet, unsigned cover sheet, follow-up scripts, recipient and document checks, handoff milestones, and final proof checklist together.
