Where USAA Auto and Kentucky meet

The lender controls sending. Kentucky controls what it can use and where it must arrive.

  1. 01Start with Kentucky

    Ask the county clerk whether it will send the request and get the exact lender instructions before the title is mailed.

  2. 02Open the USAA Auto request

    Ask the destination titling agency which documents it requires. USAA publishes separate steps for an original title and for a title copy when a borrower moves to a new state.

  3. 03Use the official channel

    For an original, have the destination agency send its request through USAA's published title-request email or fax. For a copy, contact a USAA title specialist.

  4. 04Track state receipt

    Record lender sending and Kentucky receipt separately. Keep the old-state record open until replacement proof is ready.
