Common confusion points
Confusing 'Conveyance' with just 'Sale': Conveyance covers any transfer, including gifts or mortgages.
Not realizing that both spouses must be listed as applicants/consenting parties.
Assuming a simple letter to the solicitor is enough; this form requires a *Court Order*.
Mistaking the requirement: You are applying for consent *on behalf of* one spouse, not just applying for permission to sell.
