Business
Equipment, Business Property, etc. please provide us with the following required
document(s):
- A copy of the Collateral Assignment of Life Insurance Policy
for the policy that you are requesting to be released. The Life
Insurance Company that issued the policy should be able to provide
this. The copy must be readable and clearly show the Name
of the Insured Person, Date of Insurance Policy, the Policy Number,

Please remember that FDIC can only accept a release request when
the lienholder is a Bank or Savings and Loan Institution that failed
and has been placed in FDIC receivership, OR, a Subsidiary of a
Failed Bank or Savings and Loan. If you're not sure, please call the
DRR Customer Service Center toll-free at 888-206-4662 (Dallas, TX) or for the western states 877-875-4744 (Irvine, CA).
It is highly suggested you also provide the following
documents, if available:
- Proof that the loan was paid in full. Proof of Payoff may
include such things as a copy of a "PAID" Note,
copies of payment checks, or anything else that would
indicate payment. This will greatly reduce the amount of research
time and expedite our handling of your request.
