If the form calls for a date next to the signature line, then the customer dates the form the day of the signature. Anything else would be fraudulently backdating a signature. You need to stop that process. Either you require a signature or you do not. If you require a signature, then the customer should be instructed to date their signature with the date they are signing. If you have other documentation to provide how the LE was delivered, having them back date a signature just confuses the whole issue and is going to lead to all sorts of criticism. If I document that I mailed the LE to the customer today - how the heck can you have a LE signed by the customer dated today?
