Getting ready for a notary appointment is as easy as 1, 2, 3:
ONE: Ensure that the party being notarized physically appears before the Notary Public and is in possession of their physical unexpired ID (please visit this link to view some exceptions and the acceptable forms of ID).
TWO: The document to be notarized must be physically present and in it's entirety. All pages of the document must be provided to the Notary Public.
THREE: Ensure that the document being notarized is completed in it's entirety and that there are no blank or missing mandatory fields except for the signature line. (The document may be pre-signed only if the notarial act is an Acknowledgment. Please review what-is-an-acknowledgement.html)
