What the lender says

Start with Arlington Community Federal Credit Union's process

The destination state still decides what document it can use and where it must go.

  1. 01Start here

    Ask Arlington Community Federal Credit Union to temporarily release the title for registration in the destination state. ACFCU says the borrower takes the released title to the local DMV.

  2. 02Use the approved channel

    Contact ACFCU's title team at titlegroup@arlingtoncu.org or 703-526-0200. After the DMV issues the new title, have it returned to Arlington Community Federal Credit Union, PO Box 40070, Arlington, VA 22204.

  3. 03Plan for the handoff

    ACFCU requires the new title back within 30 days of the temporary release. It says requesting a paper title in exceptional cases may take 15 days, so start before the destination deadline and track the return date.

Why both sides matter

A lender request is only useful if the new state can use it

Some states want an original title. Others accept a copy, lien letter, or registration-only path. Some require the local office to start the request. The builder checks the destination first.
