What is Mailing Address Change Request Form – Solano County, CA?
The Mailing Address Change Request Form is the Solano County Assessor/Recorder Department form on which a property owner reports a new mailing address for an assessor's parcel, giving the parcel number or property location, the owner's name, the new address, a phone number and the date of the move.
The printed form is titled MAILING ADDRESS CHANGE REQUEST and is headed by the Assessor/Recorder Department, 675 Texas Street, Suite 2700, Fairfield, CA 94533-6338. It has one page. The owner fills in the date, the ASSESSOR'S PARCEL NUMBER/ PROPERTY LOCATION, the OWNER NAME, the NEW MAILING ADDRESS with city, state and ZIP code, and a DAY TIME PHONE NUMBER. A separate line is for additional parcel numbers when more than one parcel is affected, and another asks for the DATE THAT YOU MOVED FROM PARCEL. The owner signs and prints the name of the signatory.
The form carries a warning: an address change may affect the eligibility for your homeowner's exemption.
The Assessor/Recorder lists the form first among its Forms and Information Sheets, apart from other Assessor forms such as the Homeowner's Exemption forms and the Assessment Change Request. The form is not for legal entities such as corporations, partnerships or LLCs; they send a signed letter instead, as described under who needs it.
Who needs to file Mailing Address Change Request Form – Solano County, CA?
Individual property owners in Solano County who have a new mailing address and want the Assessor/Recorder to update it for their parcel use this form. Fill it out for the parcel you moved from, and list any additional Assessor's Parcel Numbers on the line provided if more than one is affected.
Who must not use it:
- Legal entities (the form names corporations, partnerships and LLCs as examples) should not use this form. They submit the request on company stationery, with the information the form lists, signed by a corporate officer or representative.
Who may act for the owner:
- Agents acting on the owner's behalf must submit documentation stating that they are authorized to request changes.
Homeowners should read the note printed at the bottom of the form: an address change may affect the eligibility for your homeowner's exemption.
When to file Mailing Address Change Request Form – Solano County, CA
Submit the form when your mailing address for a parcel changes. The form asks for the date you moved from the parcel (month and day, with the year printed as 20__), so complete it after the move, once you know your new address. It prints no deadline and no processing time.
Because an address change may affect the eligibility for your homeowner's exemption, as the form itself warns, check with the Assessor/Recorder at (707) 784-6210 if you receive that exemption and have moved.
Documents you need
- Documentation stating you are authorized to request changes, only if you are an agent acting on the owner's behalf.
- For a legal entity (corporation, partnership, LLC and similar): a request on company stationery, signed by a corporate officer or representative, with the information the form lists, sent instead of this form.

- Sending the request as an agent without documentation stating that you are authorized to request changes.
- Mailing the form without the owner's signature or the printed name of the signatory.
- Listing only one Assessor's Parcel Number when the change affects more than one parcel; use the line for additional parcel numbers.

- Writing the new address illegibly; the form says to print or type it.
- Ignoring the note that an address change may affect eligibility for the homeowner's exemption.
