Legal Question in Business Law in New York

In NYC we have a business. We fax a credit application to our potential customer who signs a personal guarantee. The customer faxes back the completed application signing the guarantee.Is this a legal enforceable document or does the original signed application have to be mailed to us to be valid? Will the courts today accept the fax?
