What is a lien waiver?

A lien waiver is a construction payment document often used when a contractor, subcontractor, supplier, or other project participant gives up certain lien rights in connection with payment. Lien waivers may be requested during progress payments, final payments, project closeouts, title review, or lender requirements. Requirements can vary by state, project, contract, and receiving party.

iRemoteNotary does not provide legal advice. Confirm the correct form and any notarization instructions with the project owner, contractor, title company, lender, attorney, or other receiving party.

When a lien waiver may need notarization

Notarization requirements can vary by state, project, contract, lender, title company, owner, or receiving party.

  • Before a progress payment is released
  • Before final payment is issued
  • During construction project closeout
  • When requested by a property owner
  • When required by a title company or lender
  • When required by a general contractor
  • When requested by a public works or government project stakeholder
  • When required by contract instructions

Common types of lien waivers

The correct form depends on payment status, project requirements, and instructions from the receiving party. Below are examples of lien waiver types that may appear on construction projects—this is not a complete list for every jurisdiction or contract.

  • Conditional lien waiver
  • Unconditional lien waiver
  • Partial lien waiver
  • Final lien waiver
  • Progress payment lien waiver
  • Final payment lien waiver
  • Subcontractor lien waiver
  • Supplier lien waiver
  • Material supplier lien waiver
  • Contractor lien waiver

Related lien documents in the same workflows may include a claim of lien, a release of lien, or a final release of lien—confirm which document applies with your attorney or receiving party.

Lien waivers may be requested with a progress payment affidavit online notary, final payment release online notary, or an affidavit of no outstanding liens online notary as part of payment and closeout workflows. Confirm the required documents before signing.
