Information Regarding Title to Lien Holder

On July 30, 2012, Wisconsin became a title to lien holder (lender) state. Any title with a lien (loan) listed as of July 30, 2012, will be sent to the lien holder rather than the owner. Owners of vehicles will receive a Confirmation of Ownership and will receive the actual title when all liens are paid off. Vehicle owners are not eligible to apply for a replacement title until that time. Contact your lender for the title.

●Customers may apply for a replacement title for vehicles that are currently titled in their name. This excludes any vehicles titled after July 30, 2012, with a lien listed. Titles with liens issued after this date will only be issued to lien holders. To check for lien information on your vehicle, refer to online services at: wisconsindmv.gov.

●Lien holders who received an electronic title cannot apply for a replacement using the MV2119, they must contact their service provider for assistance.

  1. Gather your information: Collect the vehicle owner’s legal name, social security number, driver license number (or FEIN for a corporation), and birth date. If applicable, gather the co-owner's information as well.
  2. Fill out Section A: Enter the owner’s name, contact information, and indicate whether you wish to opt-out of open records.
  3. Navigate to Section B: Provide the vehicle identification number (VIN), license plate number, make, year, and color of the vehicle.

  5. Determine fees in Section D: Calculate the total fees owed for the replacement title, loan filing, and any counter service charges.

What You Should Know About This Form

What is the MV2119 form used for?

The MV2119 form, also known as the Replacement Title Application, is used to apply for a replacement title for a vehicle in Wisconsin. This form is typically needed when the original title is lost, stolen, or damaged. Completing this form ensures that you can obtain a new title reflecting your ownership of the vehicle.

Who can apply for a replacement title using the MV2119?

What information do I need to provide on the MV2119 form?

Are there any fees associated with submitting the MV2119 form?

What happens if my vehicle has a lien on it?

Common mistakes

When filling out the MV2119 form for a replacement title, individuals often encounter several common errors. These mistakes can result in delays or complications in processing the application. Understanding these pitfalls can lead to a smoother experience.

One frequent mistake is the incorrect entry of personal information in Section A, particularly the owner's name and Social Security Number. It is crucial that the name matches exactly what is currently in the Department of Transportation's records. Additionally, providing the wrong Social Security Number can lead to significant processing delays or outright rejection of the application.

Another error arises with regard to the vehicle identification number (VIN) in Section B. The VIN must be accurate and consist of 17 characters. If the VIN includes any typographical errors, it may lead to the vehicle being unrecognized in the system, causing further complications in the title replacement process.

Fees are often overlooked or added incorrectly, as outlined in Section D. Each applicable fee must be calculated and totalled accurately. For instance, if a loan is being added at the same time, the loan filing fee must be included. Failure to include the correct total may result in the processing of the application being halted until the appropriate amount is received.

Finally, applicants sometimes neglect to complete the certification sections in both Sections E and F. A signature is necessary to validate the information provided on the application. Without the owner's signature, or if the form lacks necessary declarations, the replacement title may not be issued as intended. Ensuring that all required signatures and details are properly filled out is essential for the timely processing of the application.

Documents used along the form

The MV2119 form is used in Wisconsin for replacing a lost, stolen, or damaged vehicle title. When completing this form, several other documents and forms may also be required or helpful in conjunction with your application. Below are five common forms and documents that you may encounter or need when dealing with vehicle titles and ownership.

  • MV1 - Title/License Plate Application: This form is used when transferring ownership of a vehicle. If you're changing title ownership along with applying for a replacement, you'll need to fill out this form.
  • MV3592 - Request for Non-Exempt Record Withhold: Use this form if you want to keep your name and address confidential from public records. It's typically utilized for individuals concerned about privacy due to open records laws.
  • DMV Customer Service Center Contact Information: While not a form, you’ll often need the contact details for your local DMV. This includes phone numbers and physical addresses where you can seek assistance with your title replacement.
  • Confirmation of Ownership: This document is issued by the DMV when there is an unresolved lien or child support enforcement issue. It serves as proof that you have ownership rights, even if the title is held by a lien holder.
  • Verification of Lien Information: This is a tool for checking whether there are any existing liens against your vehicle. You can access this information through Wisconsin’s DMV online services, ensuring that you understand any claims against the title before applying for a replacement.

By understanding these additional forms and documents, you can streamline the process of replacing your title. Maintaining thorough records and ensuring you have all necessary forms completed can significantly ease your interactions with the DMV.

Similar forms

  • MV1 - Title/License Plate Application: Like the MV2119, this form is used to apply for a vehicle title. However, it is specifically designed for transferring vehicle ownership rather than replacing a title.

  • MV13 - Application for Replacement Title: This document is similar to the MV2119 in that it also allows for the replacement of a lost or damaged title, with specific procedures for certain types of vehicles.

Dos and Don'ts

When filling out the MV2119 form for a replacement title, there are specific dos and don’ts to consider to ensure a smooth process. Here’s a helpful list:

  • Do use blue or black ink to complete the form.
  • Do ensure that the names on the title match those on your current records.
  • Do provide your Social Security Number or Wisconsin driver license number when applying as an individual.
  • Do check the appropriate boxes for opting out of open records lists if desired.
  • Do include all necessary fees based on what you are applying for.
  • Don't forget to sign the application. Both owner and co-owner signatures are important if applicable.
  • Don't submit the form without making a copy for your records.
  • Don't file the application if you are a lien holder with an electronic title; instead, contact your service provider.
  • Don't assume that additional fees won't apply; confirm if your circumstances require any extra costs.

Misconceptions

Misconceptions about the MV2119 form often lead to confusion among vehicle owners and lien holders. Here are eight common misunderstandings, along with clarifications:

  • All applicants can use the MV2119 form regardless of their situation. This form is specifically for replacement titles. If transferring ownership, a different form (MV1) is required.
  • Only vehicle owners can apply for a replacement title. Lien holders can apply for a replacement title if the lien was filed on or after July 30, 2012. They must follow different procedures.
  • Providing a Social Security Number (SSN) is optional. For individual applicants, providing an SSN is mandatory. However, those with a Wisconsin driver license can use that number as an alternative.
  • The form can be completed casually, using any ink. The instructions explicitly state that applicants must use blue or black ink to complete the form.
  • Anyone can opt out of open records laws without restrictions. Only individual owners can opt out, and businesses are not eligible for this option.
  • The replacement title will always be mailed to the owner by default. If someone other than the vehicle owner should receive the title, the applicant must complete the permission to mail title certification section.
  • The title fee is a flat rate regardless of circumstances. Fees may vary depending on how the title is applied for, including a counter service fee for in-person applications and processing fees if adding a loan.
  • All lien holders can quickly get a replacement title using the MV2119 form. Lien holders who received electronic titles cannot use this form and must contact their service provider instead.

Understanding these misconceptions can facilitate smoother processing for applicants and ensure compliance with Wisconsin law.

Key takeaways

Here are some essential points to keep in mind when completing the MV2119 form for replacing a Wisconsin vehicle title:

  • Complete Necessary Sections: Fill out Sections A through F as they apply to you and your situation. Ensure all required information is provided to avoid delays.
  • Fees Matter: Be aware of the different fees associated with your application. A replacement title incurs a $20 fee, while other services, such as a loan filing, may have additional charges. Make sure to include the total payment with your application.
  • Know Who Can Apply: Only the vehicle owner or lien holder can submit this form. If there are no liens on the vehicle, the owner is the sole applicant. For liens filed after July 30, 2012, only the lien holder can apply.
  • Mailing Address Confirmation: If you want your new title sent to an address different from the one listed on the application, indicate this clearly in the permission section. This ensures the title reaches the correct recipient.
