Does an unconditional final lien waver release expire?

CaliforniaLien Waivers

One of our customer’s GC keeps asking for an unconditional final. This job was finalized back at in March 2018. Yet, they have asked for revised finals at least 3 more times since then. They say that the unconditional Final expires.

No.  An unconditional final lien waiver does not expire.  Once you issue an Unconditional Waiver Upon Final Payment, you will waive and release any rights to file a mechanics' lien or issue a Stop Payment Notice when (1) there is evidence that the check received is cashed (i.e. a cancelled check); or (2) you acknowledge payment.
