Statement of One and the Same

Use of the DR 2421 for the following transactions:

• Titles: The use of a DR 2421 Statement of One and the Same is required when the Secure and Verifiable Identification and the buyer’s name do not match. See Assignments for seller’s use of the Statement of One in the Same form and See Assignments for buyers use of the Statement of One and the Same.

• Registrations: The use of a DR 2421 Statement of One and the Same is not required when the Secure and Verifiable Identification and registration names do not match. A DR 2421 should have been processed at the time the vehicle was titled.

• Permits: The use of a DR 2421 Statement of One and the Same is not required when the Secure and Verifiable Identification and permit names do not match, if the title has already been processed. A DR 2421 should have been processed at the time the vehicle was titled. However, if the title has not been processed then it is recommended that the county have their customers complete a DR 2421 at the time the permit is issued, then return the DR 2421 to the customer with instructions to keep the form and submit it when they return with their title paperwork.

• Placards: The use of a DR 2421 Statement of One and the Same is required when the Secure and Verifiable Identification and applicants’ names do not match, if the applicant is present. If the applicant is not present, the DR 2421 is not required from the legal guardian or representative.

Note:

• A Statement of One and the Same cannot be used by dealers when the dealership name on the title or MSO does not match the name listed on the dealer business license. (See Title Alterations in the Assignments section)

• Authorized agents with a 2175 Non-Secure Power of Attorney may sign a Statement of One and the Same on behalf of the individual granting POA.
