All states Notary Public laws are different but if the person is not related to you - you probably are legally able to do so. HOWEVER - this may not be the wisest thing to do especially if the document is challenged later.

In general In New York State can a notary notarized any kind of document for a family member?
You can notarize for a family member, but it is not a good practice to do so. If the notarized document goes to court, the opposing lawyer will use the notarization to call the document into question and possibly invalidate the document. NY notaries are not prohibited to notarize for family members. However it is not recommended to notarize for a family member in certain situation that may have certain conflict of interest and lead to complication with legal documents.

Not enough information is given with which to answer the question. WHAT kind of "agent" is being referred to? However this general statement can be made; an individiual acting under a "power of attorney" CANNOT notarize any documents bearing their own signature. In other words, they cannot sign something acting in their capacity as a POA and then, if they also happen to be a Notary Public, they cannot notarize that same document.

It would be vulnerable to challenge if the notary derives any benefit from the document.

In most cases notarization must be done by a third party not directly involved in the transaction being notarized.
