Sample Legal Address Inquiry Letter from a Financial Institution |

When people receive such an inquiry, they often don't know how to respond without sacrificing their privacy. Consequently, we have prepared an form you can attach to the form they send you to send in. All you have to do is enter "Heaven" for "legal address", attach the form, sign, and send in your response. This makes protecting your privacy easier and reminds financial institutions that they are enforcing a law that simply does not apply to them. |
