berry28notary

To ensure a smooth and efficient notarization process, please follow these steps before your scheduled appointment with CB Traveling Notary:

Step 1: Gather Your Documents Make sure you have all the documents that need to be notarized ready and in hand. This could include contracts, legal papers, real estate documents, or any other papers that require a notarized signature.

Step 2: Complete the Documents (But Do Not Sign) Fill out the documents with the necessary information, but do not sign or date them before the notary appointment. All signatures must be done in the presence of the notary to be legally valid.

Step 3: Review for Accuracy Double-check that all the information in the documents is correct and complete. Look for any blanks and ensure that they are filled in or crossed out if they do not apply.

Step 4: Have Proper Identification Ready Ensure you have an acceptable form of identification as outlined in the Identification Requirements section. Remember, the ID must be current or issued within the last five years if it's an inmate ID.

Step 5: Witnesses, If Necessary If your document requires witnesses, arrange for them to come to the appointment with you. Ensure that they also bring their identification.

Step 6: Know Your Payment Method Confirm the payment amount and acceptable methods of payment for the notarization service. Prepare to make the payment immediately following the service, unless billing arrangements have been made in advance.

Step 7: Confirm the Appointment Contact CB Traveling Notary to confirm your appointment time and location the day before, to ensure no scheduling conflicts or changes.

Step 8: Choose the Right Location If you've requested a mobile notary service, choose a location that is quiet, well-lit, and conducive to conducting official business. This could be a home office, a conference room, or any other private space with a table for signing documents.

Step 9: Prepare Any Questions Write down any questions or concerns you have about the notarization process so you can discuss them with the notary during your appointment.

Step 10: Plan for the Appointment Time Allocate sufficient time for the appointment without rushing. Notarizations can take longer if there are multiple signers or documents.

On the Day of the Appointment:

  • Make sure the space you’ve chosen for the appointment is ready.

  • Have your documents, identification, and payment ready.

  • Ensure any required witnesses are present with their identification.

After the Notarization:

  • Store your notarized documents securely.

  • Ask the notary any follow-up questions if you need clarification on next steps, such as filing the documents with any government agencies or other entities.

Remember, as your notary service provider, CB Traveling Notary is here to help you with a reliable and convenient notarization process. Please contact us if you need assistance at any point in preparing for your appointment.
