| Jan 25, 2018 at 2:08 | comment | added | Niahc | I will discuss it with them first- I just get the feeling they don't have the correct document available anywhere, and the one they sent is already a scanned copy so they can't edit it - perhaps it would be best for them to cross it out on their side? I will see what they say. | |

And you probably shouldn't cross out + initial unless you ask them first, and I don't know if that's legally valid in this case, so you'd probably want to do some research and consult a lawyer if you wanted to go that route | |

You can be legally bound to those terms as soon as you send back the signed agreement, regardless of what "verbal understanding" you might have. Do not do it under any circumstances. | |
