Likely next steps

  1. Use Michigan's duplicate-title workflow before attempting a transfer or correction that depends on the current title.
  2. Choose the online, mail, or office path based on the title status and whether you need an instant title.
  3. Wait for the replacement title or instant title before relying on it for sale or transfer work.
