What is the document date referred to as in the context of the Caring Transitions franchise agreement?

According to the 2025 Caring Transitions Franchise Disclosure Document, the document date is referred to as the "issuance date". The FDD states, "The issuance date of this Franchise Disclosure Document is April 14, 2025." This date is important because it establishes when the disclosure document was created and certified by Caring Transitions.

Prospective franchisees are required to acknowledge receipt of the FDD, including the issuance date, before signing the franchise agreement. The FDD includes a receipt form where the franchisee must confirm they received the document dated April 14, 2025, and list all included exhibits. This acknowledgement helps ensure that franchisees have had access to the required information before making a commitment.

The issuance date is also relevant for legal compliance. Franchise laws typically require that the FDD be current and up-to-date. Using the issuance date, prospective franchisees can verify that they are reviewing the most recent version of the disclosure document provided by Caring Transitions and that they have received the FDD at least 14 days before signing the franchise agreement.
