## What to include in your fax to Merrill

Submit the completed account form to its stated processing destination. For address verification, include the evidence requested by that specific letter of authorization. Keep unrelated documents out of the packet.

## Check the destination and prepare your cover page

Name the processing department and the exact form or request. Include the account or case reference required by the instructions, a callback number and the page count. A cover page does not replace a signature, identity check or original document required by the form.

Check the official source and recipient instructions before sending. A reviewed source confirms a published number, not live availability.

## Confirm delivery and follow up with Merrill

These are fax destinations, not voice support lines. Keep the transmission result and a copy of the documents. Confirm with the receiving department that the packet is complete and can be processed; a delivery receipt does not establish acceptance or a decision. Check with that department before sending a duplicate.
