What the notary does
You sign the form in front of the notary, who confirms your identity and completes the notarial certificate. Some offices also want an apostille or a witness's statement; read the instructions on your form.
Easier for older adults
We can come to your home or care facility, and remote online notarization can work if the pension office accepts it. Many retirees prefer a visit so they don't have to travel.
Before we come
Bring the form, unsigned, and a government photo ID or passport. If the form needs an apostille, we can arrange it. We're based in Cranford and send mobile notaries to homes, offices and care facilities in Union and Middlesex counties, including Cranford, Westfield, Elizabeth, Edison and Woodbridge. For other counties, tell us the address and we'll confirm availability before you book.

Can this be done online?
Sometimes, if the office accepts remote notarization. Ask them before the session.
How often do I need it?
That depends on the payer, often yearly.
