Escrow Agent Quarterly Report Filing

The Escrow Agent quarterly report deadline is approaching. Quarterly reporting is done through Secure Access Washington (SAW). If you do not have a SAW account set up already, do not wait until the deadline to create one. There are several steps including designating a SAW reporting person, who DFI will need to approve, before you can utilize SAW to make your report.

See Escrow Agent Quarterly Report Filing for more information.
