Where USAA Auto and Washington meet

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

  1. 01Start with Washington

    Choose the licensing office, get its current fax number and packet instructions, then give that exact recipient to the lender.

  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.
