| What is a Notary Public? |
| A Notary Public is a government appointed servant
of the state whose function is to administer oaths and
witness signings of important documents. |
| |
| What types of documents would
be notarized? |
| Affidavits, real estate deeds, mortgage and loan documents
and powers of attorney are some of the most common types
of documents that are notarized. |
| |
| Does a Notary Public prepare documents,
offer legal advice, or legalize the documents they notarize? |
| No. The sole purpose of a Notary Public is to identify
the signer and witness that the signer has verified
all content in notarized documents are true. |
| |
| What is the best method for identifying
a signer? |
| While personal knowledge is always the best method,
a driver's license, military ID or passport is usually
acceptable. |
| |
| Is there an age requirement in
order to become a Notary Public? |
| According to the Secretary of State, an individual
must be 18 years of age or older to become a Notary
Public. |
| |
| If I am a Notary Public and my
commission is about to expire, can I take this course
to renew my license? |
| Yes! As a matter of fact, many of the participants
use this seminar in preparation for the exam to renew
their license. |
| |
| Can I send a check for both the
seminar and the exam to National University Seminars? |
| No. A representative from CPS Human Resource Services,
the self-supporting public agency responsible for administering
the exam, will be present at the end of the seminar
to collect payment on behalf of the State of California.
If you are planning to take the exam, please be sure
to bring a check or money order for $40 made payable
to the Secretary of State. |
| |
| I am nervous about taking the
exam directly after the seminar. Do many of the attendees
take the exam on the same day? |
| Yes, they do. In fact, past attendees of this seminar
have over a 90% pass rate on the Notary Public exam,
according to CPS Human Resource Services. |
| |
| Where can I obtain all of the
supplies a Notary Public needs to perform their tasks? |
| Notary Public supplies will be made available to you
at each of our seminars. If you would like to purchase
these supplies in advance, please contact National University
Seminars at 877-532-7606. |
