No. Absolutely not. It is a requirement to have a VALID NOTARY SEAL to legitimize the document.
I am unsure what an "unlicensed" notary is. If a notary's commission has expired, that person is no longer a notary and cannot legally notarize documents. If a notary with an expired-commission notarizes a document, the expired-commission notary can face fines or jail-time. The legal status of the improperly notarized document varies from state to state. Asking an expired notary to work, via email or otherwise, is not a crime and does not necessarily constitute an attempt at fraud. If an uncommissioned notary is soliciting work, that person is committing fraud.
A notary is notarizing ONLY the legality of the signatures on the title, nothing else. As long as the Notary's commission is current and valid, they may notarize any any legal document.
Oh, isn't that a happy little question! Unfortunately, once a notary's commission expires, they can no longer notarize any documents. But don't worry, they can simply renew their commission and get back to notarizing beautiful documents in no time. Just a little bump in the road, nothing we can't handle with a little positivity and a fresh canvas.
It should be prominently displayed on your Commission paper or certificate.
A notary public does not notarize a document. He/she can notarize a signature.
I am a notary in Iowa and a family member needs a notary.. Can I notarize the document
Notaries do not notarize documents. They notarize signatures, and they are only permitted in the state by which they are licensed. It does not matter what the document is. If the document is signed in Pennsylvania in the presence of a Pennsylvania notary, that notary can notarize the signature. If the document is signed in any other state, or outside of the presence of the notary, the notary cannot notarize the signature.
No. A California Notary cannot notarize a Hawaiin document document while THEY, themselves, are in Hawaii. Their commission is only good within the state that issued it. A Hawaiian Notary would have to notarize a document meant to be used in Hawaii.
A notary does not notarize a document. A notary notarizes a signature. The notary is not prohibited from notarizing a family member's signature.
