Three Examples Showing Why You Need the Help of Data Retrieval Specialists
When you need to retrieve sensitive personal information such as divorce papers or mortgage agreements, you want to be sure that those records will remain as confidential as possible. One way to do this is to hire professional data retrieval specialists. These men and women can act as your official representative while obtaining the documents you need. They have technology to retrieve the information without putting our confidentiality at risk.
Why would you hire someone else to handle your personal information or to retrieve the documents you need? Consider the following examples:
Obtaining Copies of Your Past Tax Returns
In order to get exact copies of past income tax returns, there are just a few steps to complete.
- Fill out the IRS Form 4506.
- Mail it in to the address listed in the instructions.
- Send the appropriate payment for each set of records.
- Wait for up to two months.
This seems pretty simple and straightforward. However, if you need the tax documents in order to obtain or modify a home loan, then you will need to choose the IRS Form 4506T or Form 4506T-EZ. If you have been impacted by a federally declared disaster, then you will need to follow an entirely different process to get your information.
Getting Copies of Birth Certificates, Death Records, and Other Vital Information
- Determine whether you need an authorized copy or an informational copy.
- Review the instructions and regulations regarding these personal documents.
- Complete the application
- When necessary, obtain a notarized sworn statement.
- Prepare the necessary payment.
- Send in your request and wait.
Once again, the process seems pretty simple. Once again, however, because birth certificates and other vital records contain confidential information, you may run up against serious obstacles. For example, the confidential information typically included at the bottom of a birth certificate can only be included with your copy if it specifically requested by the person named on the document or by one of the parents who signed the birth certificate. So, even if you are the father listed on the certificate, if your signature is not there, you may not be able to get this document.
Changing Vehicle Ownership
In order to take ownership of a vehicle that you are purchasing from another individual, you will need:
- the signatures of the previous owners
- the signatures of any lien holders
- your signature
- a bill of sale
- the title of ownership
In a surprising number of cases, however, the original title of ownership is either missing or is never turned over to the new buyer. The process for obtaining this document is complicated and may not be the same for people in different scenarios. (Is your vehicle subject to odometer requirements? Have you obtained a replacement title?)
Data Retrieval Specialists Provide the Solution
These are just a few examples of the complexity and difficulties you face when you want to obtain personal information. Data retrieval specialists, however, have experience handling these transactions. Enlist the help of these professionals in order to gain access to your records.
