If you need to print a prepared document package, you should have been given a "QuickCode" by a DocsDirect associate or your Lender. This QuickCode is a unique code assigned to a specific closed loan package. After entering a valid QuickCode, you will receive instructions for printing the corresponding documents.

"QuickCodes" give a user access to print closing documents from DocsDirect. A unique "QuickCode" is assigned to each set of
completed
(ready to print) loan documents. When a set of loan documents is completed, the company responsible for printing those documents (usually a Closing Agent) will be notified that the documents are ready to print and of the corresponding "QuickCode" for that set of documents.

If you have been given a "QuickCode", but it does not work, or you have misplaced a "QuickCode", the most efficient solution, when possible, is to contact the person who gave you the "QuickCode". If that is not possible, you may complete our
Technical Assistance Form. Please supply as much information as possible such as: (a) Borrowers first and last name (b) The nonfunctioning "QuickCode" (c) Lender, etc.

We are instructed by the Lender on how this is to be handled. Different arrangements may be made for individual circumstances. In most cases, a member of the DocsDirect staff will contact you with a "QuickCode" when the file is
completed.
