After receiving your request, the lender has 20 days to terminate the UCC filing.

Rules vary by State around releasing a UCC lien after a borrower satisfied the debt. Primarily there are two main ways to remove them. One way is by having the lender file a UCC-3 Financing Statement Amendment. Another way to remove a UCC filing is by swearing an oath of full payment at the secretary of state office.

A UCC-3 termination statement (a Termination) is a required filing that terminates a security interest that has been perfected by a UCC-1 filing. 1. A Termination for personal property is accomplished by completing and filing form UCC-3 with the Secretary of State's office in the appropriate state.

When the debtor has satisfied all amounts owed to the lender, a UCC-3 termination statement (now called a UCC termination statement) is routinely filed to terminate the security interest perfected by the UCC-1 financing statement.

Section 9-503 of the UCC provides various, more specific rules regarding the sufficiency of a debtor's name on a financing statement.However, unlike with a security agreement, on a financing statement it is acceptable to use a supergeneric description of collateral.

The secured party has 20 days to either terminate the filing or send a termination statement to the debtor that the debtor can then file. If this does not happen within the 20-day time frame, the debtor may file a UCC-3 termination statement.

A UCC1 financing statement is effective for a period of five years. A record that is not continued before its lapse date will cease to be effective, costing the secured party their perfected status and perhaps their priority position to collect. Once a financing statement has lapsed, it cannot be revived.
