✅ Bring a valid photo ID:
- Your ID must be government-issued and either current or expired less than one year ago.
- Acceptable IDs: Driver’s license, state ID, military ID, or passport.
- Not accepted: Digital IDs (on your phone) or photocopies.
🔵 What to do: Before your appointment, double-check that you have the physical ID with you.
✅ Lost or don't have a valid ID?
No problem — you can still get notarized if you bring a credible witness.
- Your witness must either personally know you, AND
- They must show their own valid government-issued photo ID (current or expired less than one year ago).
- Your witness must appear with you at the appointment — they cannot call in or video in.
🔵 What to do: Arrange for someone you know personally to come with you and bring their valid ID.
✅ Important Reminders:
- You must appear in person — no exceptions.
- Your documents must be completely filled out but not signed or dated yet.
- We cannot give legal advice or help you complete forms.
🔵 What to do:
- Review your documents before your appointment to make sure all blanks (except signatures/dates) are filled in.
- Wait to sign until you're in front of the notary.
- If you have legal questions, ask us for a referral to a trusted Greeley attorney.
✅ If Your Document Needs Witnesses:
- Some documents require witnesses who are not the notary.
- We do not provide signature witnesses as a service.
🔵 What to do: Bring your own witnesses with you if your documents require it. (Check your lender, attorney, or document instructions if unsure.)
✅ Need an Interpreter?
Yes, you may use an interpreter — but they must meet these rules:
- They cannot be named in the document.
- They cannot benefit financially or otherwise from the notarization.
- Certified interpreters are only required if you are deaf, hard of hearing, or deafblind.
🔵 What to do:
- Bring your own interpreter if needed (friends or family are fine if they meet the rules).
- For deaf or hard-of-hearing clients, arrange for a certified interpreter.
