Personal Information Declaration
Use a Personal Information Declaration 2013 template to make your document workflow more streamlined.
What the Personal Information Declaration does
A Personal Information Declaration records an individual’s identifying details, statements, and acknowledgment for a defined U.S. business or administrative purpose. The person completing it reviews the requested information, confirms accuracy, and signs the record. In signNow, the sender uploads the declaration, signNow detects fillable fields, and the sender assigns each field to the appropriate signer. The completed document and audit trail preserve the submitted information, signing events, and document history. The form itself does not create a universal filing deadline; the responsible organization must apply the rule governing its specific use.

Privacy pitfalls to address before sending
Personal information can remain visible to recipients who do not need every field, increasing unnecessary disclosure during circulation or download. A declaration may be signed before the individual receives a clear explanation of electronic-record consent and paper-record rights. Incorrect field assignments can allow one signer to enter or view information intended for another signer. Unrestricted downloads and shared folders can expose the completed declaration after signNow records the signing event.
Recommended setup for the declaration
Use a controlled signing workflow that verifies recipients, records each action, protects personal information, and limits access to authorized personnel.

Troubleshooting the declaration workflow
These answers address field preparation, signer access, electronic-signature rules, plan selection, and preservation of the completed Personal Information Declaration.
Upload the original PDF again and verify that required fields are visible before sending. signNow’s field detection depends on the document layout; manually add or adjust fields when the declaration uses unusual spacing, scanned pages, or handwritten prompts.
Check the signer’s email address, assigned fields, and routing order. A recipient cannot complete fields assigned to another person. Open the signNow document preparation view, correct assignments, and resend only after confirming which individual must provide each personal detail.
Business includes templates, audit trails, and legally binding eSignatures at $8/user/month when billed annually. If the workflow requires bulk send, Business Premium is listed at $15/user/month annually; confirm that the selected plan meets the declaration’s volume and routing needs.
For a consumer-facing declaration, provide the electronic-record disclosure required by ESIGN, 15 U.S.C. §7001(c), including paper-record rights, electronic-access capability, and withdrawal procedures. signNow can provide the signing workflow, but the organization remains responsible for legally sufficient disclosure language.
ESIGN, 15 U.S.C. ch. 96, generally gives qualifying electronic signatures the same legal effect as handwritten signatures in interstate commerce. UETA governs most intrastate transactions, while New York uses ESRA. Confirm that the declaration is not within an excluded document category.
Export the completed PDF and signNow audit trail together after all assigned fields are complete. The audit evidence supports attribution and document history, but retention must follow the declaration’s purpose, organizational policy, applicable state law, and any specific agency requirement.
