68-1
Use the 68 1 2017 template to simplify high-volume document management.
What 68-1 is and how it works
68-1 is a form identified by that exact designation; its issuing authority, purpose, required fields, and filing rules must be confirmed from the official source before completion. In signNow, a sender uploads the authorized 68-1 file, reviews any detected fillable fields, assigns signer roles, and sends the document for completion. Signers review the populated record and apply an electronic signature where permitted. signNow records timestamps, signer activity, and an audit trail. ESIGN and UETA can support electronic transactions, but they do not replace form-specific agency instructions or exclusions.

How long to retain 68-1 records
Retention depends on what 68-1 documents and which authority governs it; apply the underlying record rule rather than assuming one universal period.
Three years: tax records
Six years: major understatement
Indefinite: fraud cases
State period: longer rule
Completion record: audit trail
Troubleshooting 68-1 signing and records
Resolve 68-1 workflow problems by checking the document version, signer assignment, electronic-consent requirements, plan controls, and applicable retention rule.
Confirm that the uploaded file is the intended 68-1 version and that its fields remain readable. signNow Business includes templates and audit trails, but it cannot determine whether a substitute version satisfies an issuing authority’s requirements.
Review the recipient address, signing order, and assigned fields before resending 68-1. Business Premium adds bulk send, while Business supports standard invitations; either plan still requires accurate signer details and a valid delivery method.
For consumer-facing 68-1 transactions, provide the ESIGN disclosure, explain the paper-record option, and confirm electronic access before signing. These obligations arise under 15 U.S.C. §7001(c), not from signNow’s subscription plan.
Business includes legally binding eSignatures and audit trails. Enterprise adds advanced signer authentication, while Site License offers HIPAA and 21 CFR Part 11 as add-ons; select controls based on the transaction’s actual regulatory requirements.
Check that the signer completed every required 68-1 field and that the document shows a completed status. signNow’s audit trail records actions, but the recipient must still review substantive accuracy before submission.
Export the completed 68-1 and its audit trail from the signNow workspace, then apply the retention rule governing the underlying record. Electronic storage does not replace IRS, employment, healthcare, or state-specific retention duties.
