The Governor of the Commonwealth has appoint me to another term as Notary Public for the Commonwealth at Large. My term runs through 3/31/20015. I elected to be sworn in at the Alexandria Circuit Court.
With the letter announcing my appointment there was a document entitled IMPORTANT GUIDELINES FOR VIRGINIA NOTARIES:
Some of the main points are:
1)A notary is a public official appointed by the Governor. No employer or supervisor may impose requirements pertaining to a notary that are contrary to Virginia's laws or regulations pertaining to notaries
2} "A notary can not notarize his or her own signature , the signature of his or her spouse, or a document in which the notary or notary's spouse may benefit."
3)" Every effort should be made to have complete notarization on the same page as the signature(s)being notarized. If the notarization is on a separate page from the signature(s), the notarial statement must include the name of each person whose signature being notarized."
4)Any new notary laws will be posted on July 1 on the web site www.commonwealth.virginia.gov/OfficialDocuments/Notary/notary.cfm

Virginia Notaries do not write or produce divorce documents!!
Non-lawyer notaries are not allowed to produce or write divorce documents. However, notaries are authorized to do jurats affidavits regarding divorces and acknowledgments on property settlements. Both the law library at City of Alexandria Circuit Court and Fairfax sell a $10 kit for uncontested divorces. Notaries can also notarize documents involving proof of service by a process server. However, the notary can not be the process server and notarize the document. I strongly recommend anyone using these kits to have the final document reviewed by a licensed member of the VA Bar. Mediation of divorce issues is recommended; the mediator can not notarize the agreement. People who are being threatened with divorce are encourage to get involved with marriage encounters.http://www.wwme.org/new.html>Sometimes one partner will sent a torpedo into a marriage that destroys the marriage.Think of yourself as fighter pilot hit by a enemy rocket;press the ejection button for both pilots. Get on another airplane with another co-pilot!!! . Do not get angry, get a divorce!!!!!
