PRO TIPS – PLEASE COMPLY TO AVOID DELAYS

  1. Ensure that the signer’s name is EXACTLY the same on three documents. Make sure the notary knows this when completing the affidavit of identity.
  2. No colored paper or card stock. Regular white paper only.
  3. No hole punches or staples
  4. Do not alter or deface the document in any way
  5. Make sure the back of your paperwork is blank. Do not print on the other side of previously printed documents.
  6. Did you include a way for us to reach you? Please include a Post-It note with your phone number or email address in case we need to contact you. Do not write this information on the application!
