DECLINE TO SIGN

Learn how and when to decline to sign a document you review.

You may decline to sign when:

 * You received an envelope meant for another person
 * You’re signing an agreement, such as an apartment lease, and some of the
   terms you agreed to during your discussion with the leasing agent are missing
   or incorrect
 * The envelope containing the on-boarding package for your new job is missing
   key documents

When you decline to sign, it voids the entire envelope for you and all other
envelope recipients. Before declining to sign a document, ask the envelope's
sender a question by posting a comment to the envelope. See Use Comments to Ask
and Answer Questions About a Document. You can also reply to the email
notification you received.

To decline to sign:

 1. Open the email notification and select REVIEW DOCUMENT.
 2. In the upper-right of the envelope select OTHER ACTIONS and select Decline
    to Sign.
    
 3. Confirm that you understand that declining to sign voids the envelope not
    only for yourself, but also for all the other recipients of the envelope.
    Select CONTINUE.
    
    
    
    
    
 4. Provide a reason why you are declining to sign to the envelope sender. The
    sender of the document may require you to provide a reason why you're
    declining. The text you enter is emailed to the sender and is recorded as
    part of the envelope history.
    
    
    
    
    
 5. After providing a reason why you are declining, select DECLINE TO SIGN.
