Yes. We understand that unforeseen events may require you to cancel an appointment, and we empathize. With that said, if the cancellation occurs within four hours of the appointment time, a $25 cancellation fee will be billed. If the cancellation occurs after the Notary Public has arrived at the agreed upon appointment site/time, a cancellation fee equivalent to the travel fee will be billed immediately.
Yes. We will perform all lawful and reasonable requests for notarization. However, we reserve the right to cancel our service if our Notary Public feels unsafe upon arrival at the appointment. Additional reasons may include but are not limited to:
Suspicion of fraud
Uncertainty of a signer’s willingness and/or mental awareness
Improper identification
Inability to provide credible identifying witnesses
Incomplete document that contains blank spaces
If the document doesn’t include certificate wording (section your Notary Public will stamp), and the signer cannot tell us the certificate they need. Remember, we cannot give legal advice or advise on the certificate you need to use.
Documentation must include the signer’s photograph, signature, identifying number, and a physical description that includes height, weight, color of hair and color of eyes. The signer must be 18 years of age or older. See acceptable examples below.
An unexpired driver’s license or other identification card issued by a state or territory of the United States
An unexpired United States passport issued by the United States Department of State
An unexpired United States military identification card that is issued by any branch of the United States Armed Forces
Inmate identification card issued by the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation if the signer is in custody
Any other unexpired identification card issued by the United States government or a state or tribal government that contains the individual’s photograph, signature and a physical description
United States real estate transactions for Canadian or Mexican citizens require a valid, unexpired passport issued by a national government other than the United States government, accompanied by a valid unexpired visa or other documentation that establishes an individual’s legal presence in the United States
If you as a signer do not have valid identification, you may be identified on the oath or affirmation of one or two credible identifying witnesses who know you. This individual or these individuals must have acceptable identification. You have two options:
OPTION ONE: Produce one credible identifying witness who is personally known by the Notary and can produce acceptable identification.
OPTION TWO: Produce two credible identifying witnesses if neither of them are personally known by the Notary. The witnesses must personally know you and take an oath attesting to your identity. The witnesses must not have an interest in or be named in the document(s).
If this is confusing, call us. We are here to help.
No. Sorry, we cannot provide witnesses. You are responsible for providing your own witness(es) for your appointment. Please make sure they are 18 years of age or older and have acceptable identification. Failure to do so will result in the cancellation of your appointment and a cancellation fee will be charged. Please see question on acceptable identification and our Cancellation Policy if you need more information on what those topics entail.
