What the custody intake sheet does
Custody Client Intake Sheet Form records the people, relationships, permissions, and supporting details an organization needs before handling a custody-related request. In signNow, upload the sheet, review automatically detected fillable fields, assign each signature or approval to the authorized party, and send the document electronically. Signers review the custody information, complete assigned fields, and sign through an email link or configured authentication method. The completed PDF and audit trail preserve the submitted information, signer actions, and timestamps. State law determines whether additional witnessing, notarization, or court filing is required.

Custody intake troubleshooting questions
These answers address field placement, signer identity, electronic consent, plan limits, healthcare data, and retention for Custody Client Intake Sheet Form.
Upload the custody sheet as a PDF or supported document, then confirm detected fields manually. signNow’s Business plan includes templates and audit trails, but field detection does not replace checking names, dates, custody terms, or signature locations.
A signer can often open a signNow request without creating an account. If the custody record requires stronger attribution, configure SMS authentication or another available method and preserve the resulting audit trail with the completed document.
For a consumer-facing custody intake process, provide the ESIGN Act electronic-record disclosure when required, explain paper-record access, and document consent. ESIGN is codified at 15 U.S.C. chapter 96; state UETA or New York ESRA may also apply.
The Business plan is listed at $8 per user per month with annual billing and includes 100 signature invites per user per year. Business Premium adds bulk send; Enterprise adds advanced signer authentication and conditional fields.
If the sheet contains protected health information, signNow identifies HIPAA compliance as requiring a BAA. Confirm the organization’s BAA, access controls, and retention policy before sending that custody record through a healthcare workflow.
A completed signNow document can be retained with its audit trail, including signer actions and timestamps. Choose a retention period based on the record’s purpose and applicable state or federal rule rather than assuming one period covers every custody file.
