Pennsylvania Unconditional Lien Waiver and Release on Progress Payment

Pennsylvania contractors, keep the progress payments flowing on your construction projects. Use this Unconditional Waiver and Release form to release your lien each time you receive a payment.

This Unconditional Waiver and Release form is designed specifically for Pennsylvania contractors to help manage progress payments on construction projects.

By using this form, contractors can formally release their lien rights each time a payment is received, ensuring compliance and smooth financial transactions throughout the duration of the project.

Reusable for Progress Payments

General contractors can reuse this downloadable form for every progress payment received. This approach streamlines documentation, making it easy and convenient to prepare the release forms for each instalment.

Scope of Lien Release

The contractor relinquishes lien rights only for the amount and up to the date of each specific payment. This ensures that the release is limited only to what has been paid, preserving lien rights for future payments that have not yet been made.

Obligation to Pay Labor and Suppliers

The contractor is obligated to pay all laborers, subtrades, and suppliers who have provided labor, materials, or services to the construction project up to the payment date. This requirement helps maintain trust and accountability across all parties involved in the project.

Guidelines for Signing

As this form constitutes an unconditional release, contractors should not sign it until the payment has been honored by the bank upon which it is drawn. This safeguard helps protect contractors from releasing lien rights before confirming receipt of funds.

Format and Usage

The form is available in Microsoft Word format. Contractors can purchase the form once and use it as often as necessary for all of their projects within the state.

Jurisdiction

This document is intended exclusively for use within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. It may not be suitable for projects outside this jurisdiction, as lien laws differ from state to state.
