Adobe Systems Inc. announced that Veri-Tax, LLC and its subsidiary, Verification Bureau, LLC, have launched a Form 4506-T electronic signature solution using the EchoSign platform by Adobe in support of the IRS' commitment to accept electronic signatures on income verification requests beginning. Once received and approved by the IRS for processing, an electronically signed Form 4506-T releases a taxpayer's previous years' income tax transcripts from the IRS to an authorized third party. This process is considered the most secure method of verifying a borrower's income during the loan origination process.

Until now, the Form 4506-T was the only mortgage loan document still requiring a handwritten signature.
