New York Authorization for Release of Personal Information is a document that allows individuals to authorize the release of their personal information to another person or organization. It is required by law in New York and is a legally binding document. This document is used when someone needs to provide their personal information to a third party for various reasons, such as for employment, medical care, or educational purposes. There are two main types of New York Authorization for Release of Personal Information: the general release and the limited release. The general release grants permission for the release of any and all information that the individual has provided, while the limited release allows the individual to specify the information that is to be released. Both documents must be signed by the individual and any third party requesting the information.
