Immigration-document notary FAQs
Can the notary complete immigration forms?
No. The notary can perform an eligible notarial act but cannot select forms, answer legal questions, or prepare an immigration application.
Can a notary certify a copy of any document?
No. Copy-certification authority and agency acceptance vary. Confirm exactly what the receiving agency requires before the appointment.
What if the signer does not understand English?
The signer must understand the document and communicate willingness. Discuss interpreter needs with the attorney or agency before booking. The notary does not translate legal content.
Does notarization guarantee agency acceptance?
No. The receiving agency decides whether the form, evidence, translation, signature, certificate, and notarization meet its requirements.
