<p class="MsoNormal">We have a married couple. Wife did a legal name change, we have the docs on that. She wanted us to record a QCD putting title into her new name (so QCD was husband + wife’s former name conveying to husband + wife’s new name). We can’t
seem to find a clear WAC on the REET that covers this. We tried 211 but it was rejected. Thoughts on using 215?
