✍️ Notary question we get asked often..

“Can you notarize this form without the person present with identification?”

No, I’m sorry we cannot. All parties must be here in order for us to notarize something legally.

🚨 From the National Notary Association: Yes, notarizing a signature without the signer being physically present (or via authorized online we**am methods) is illegal and considered fraud, often called a "faulty notarization". It violates the fundamental "personal appearance" requirement, making the document invalid and exposing the notary to lawsuits, criminal charges, and loss of commission.
