<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt">My office is attempting to record a QCD in Snohomish County removing a tenant in common as a gift, no consideration, but w/ underlying debt that’s solely been paid by Grantee. We are using the supplemental
form, and we’ve noticed that on Simplifile they are asking us to use one of the WAC codes that corresponds with the supplemental form and not the actual WAC code.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt"><u></u> <u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt">For our specific situation, it wants us to choose
</span><span style="font-size:11pt;color:rgb(33,33,33)">WAC 458-61A-201(B)(3), which B3 corresponds to the form, but not the actual WAC. The actual WAC code for our use should be RCW 458-61A-201(6)(c)(vii), but it is not listed as an option on their interface.
<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:rgb(33,33,33)"><u></u> <u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:rgb(33,33,33)">Is this common practice for Simplifile, or are we doing something wrong? I don’t want to have to defend my choice of WAC code in the future if anything were to be contested.
