Mar 16, 2022

When someone sends you a DocuSign document for your electronic signature, you
first receive an email from DocuSign sent on behalf of the sender.

STEPS

 1. Review the DocuSign email:
    * Open the email and review the message from the sender.
    * Select REVIEW DOCUMENT to begin the signing process.
    * 
    * Agree to sign electronically: Review the consumer disclosure, and select
      the checkbox I agree to use Electronic Records and Signatures.
    * 
    * Select CONTINUE to begin the signing process. 
    * Important! To view and sign the documents, you must agree to conduct
      business electronically. Note: To view additional options, click OTHER
      ACTIONS. For more information of other actions available, review our
      Signing Documentation.
 2. Start the signing process:
    * Select the START tag on the left to begin the signing process. You are
      taken to the first tag requiring your action. Select the SIGN tag.
    * 
      You are asked to Adopt Your Signature.
    * Verify that your name and initials are correct. If not, change them as
      needed.
    * Select ADOPT AND SIGN to adopt and save your signature information and
      return to the document.
    * 
 3. Confirm signing:
    * When you finish clicking all signature tags in the document, confirm
      signing by selecting FINISH.
    * A message appears stating that you have completed your document. You can
      now download a PDF copy or print a copy of the document. The sender
      receives an email with the signed document attached, and the signed
      document appears in their DocuSign account.
 4. Sign up for a DocuSign account: Sign up for a free DocuSign trial to save
