I think Tora had a post in here somewhere when she spoke to a woman who was able to force the county recorder to remove it. I'll have to do some searching.



The way they did it in the taxtruth newsletter is probably the path you'll follow. The UCC-3 to remove it after a UCC-11 shows that no real lien exists (because there was no judgment) is a good one.



Over in the lawwork group on Yahoo, I found a link to a guy who'd removed an IRS lien by directing a well written affidavit, showing how he'd defaulted them in a 1-2-3 default method and had the SoS remove it from their rolls. I think this was a real lien too, not just a notice. They even had a weblink to the Arizona SoS site where you could put in the guy's name and see the scans of the actual documents that he filed online.



The lawwork Yahoo group isn't showing this post anymore, but have the info at home. As soon as I get it, I'll put info up on how to view this stuff.



However, in the case of a Notice at the county level, then try the UCC-11, and then force the county recorder to remove with a UCC-3 form. Be careful. Don't attack or intimidate, but calmly tell them of the process. You may have to have them on the phone with the SoS office in your state (in some states like Georgia, the Clerk of the Superior Court handles it), but they might need to talk to those 'in the know' at the lien office to prove that it isn't on file.



The very last resort is to sue them, but you shouldn't have to go that far.
