Since e-filing in the Land Title Office (LTO) has become mandatory in BC for many forms (from the BC Land Title & Survey Authority’s Web-site):

The Director of Land Titles has required certain land title documents to be filed electronically. Phase One of Required E-filing is now in effect.

These documents are included in some of the most common transactions submitted to the Land Title Office:

• Form A – Transfer, Form B – Mortgage, Form C – Charge and Form C – Release effective January 16, 2012.
• Posting plans and associated applications and certificates effective July 1, 2011.

Detailed practice information about Required E-filing and EFS training resources are available as follows:

• Consult the Required E-filing webpage.
• Read the Director’s Requirements to File Land Title Forms Electronically (DR 06-11).
• Review Frequently Asked Questions about EFS and Required E-filing.
• Consult a checklist to get started using EFS.

Upon completion of all phases, most documents and plans will be filed electronically with a very small number filed manually in hardcopy form.

This blog post is to remind those readers in BC that help is at hand in order to move into mandatory e-filing.

Due to overwhelming demand, Dye & Durham have added an additional date for their complimentary Hints and Tips on Supported Land Title E-Filing Webinar.  This additional date is February 2nd, 2012.

This webinar will include:

• Review all necessary land e-filing requirements;
