Why Request a State of Title Certificate
A State of Title Certificate is a copy of the title that is certified correct at the time of issuance by the land title office.
You may need a State of Title Certificate for your property for several reasons:
- To confirm the registration of a change to the registered title, when:
- Buying or selling a property.
- A mortgage is paid off.
- A registered interest has been created or modified.
- In support of an application to court.
- For your personal records

- Do not use correction fluid (wite-out) on your application. This will result in your application being returned to you. If an error is made, cross-out the text and write the correction above or complete a new form.
