Become A Notary Public And Take Advantage Of The Busy Cities

All California notaries are required to maintain
a journal of notarial acts with bound and
numbered pages. The Notary Public journal must
be sequential and must include all notarial acts
performed by the certified notary public.

Time and dates of each and every notary public
action. The type of notarial act (i.e.,
acknowledgment, jurat, etc. Type of document to
be notarized, i.e., Deed of Trust, Affidavit,
etc. In the journal it must be listed how the
signer was identified in addition to the
Flintridge Notary Publics information as well as
the type of identification used. The fee charged
(if no fee is charged, write 0 or no fee The
person that is having the documents notarized
must provide their signatures. The right finger
print of the person signing the documents is
also required(if available).

The notary public journals also are required to
have a place for the fingerprinting that is also
a part of the notary process.There are
circumstances in that vary when thumb printing
such as:

If the document being notarized is a deed, a
quitclaim deed, a deed of trust affecting real
estate, or a power of attorney it is required
that the signer place his or her right
thumbprint in the journal. An available
thumbprint should be used if the right thumb
print is not available for thumb printing.

One exception to the rule about the thumbprint
is that if the signer does not have a thumb
print or is physically unable that it must be
documented in the journal with a detailed
explanation.

Notary Public journals will allow additional
information to be provided. Taking notes is
important in case some discretion occurs in the
future and referencing journal entries will help
clear up matters. More often than not, unusual
circumstances or other instances should be noted
in the notary public journals.

Always keep a Notary Public journal in a secure
location when not in use such as a locked desk,
lock box or safe to ensure tapering and
fraudulent alterations cannot occur. If the
sequential journal is stolen, lost, misplaced,
destroyed, damaged, or otherwise rendered
unusable, the Notary Public immediately must
notify the Secretary of State by certified or
registered mail. The notary public notification
should include dates of specific notary journal
entries along with the notary commission number,
date of commission and other information valuable
to the notary commission.

Additionally, it cannot be stated any clearer
that the Notary Public journal is very important
and should be kept up to date with journal
entries.
