Faulty Notary Information

Faulty Notary Information
I received an electronic newsletter from a notary organization stating that Va notaries do not a seal. This is not true and has been untrue for at least two years. VA requires all notaries to use reproducible seal or put carbon paper in a crimp.

Note: The notary organization has corrected the error on August 18,2010!!!!

Another organization stated you could renounce or negate or recall a notarization after you have finished a document and handed the document to the client.There is no statuary basis for this idea in VA. This means do not notarize if you have any question on the id or any aspect of the notarization. Always have an exit strategy if you find yourself in a hostile environment. Do not believe everything you read in print or on the internet. Refer to your VA notary handbook. If you are still puzzled, email me.
