Notary Public vs. Notary Signing Agent
The Notary Signing Agent (NSA) credential is earned by notary publics who have undergone specialized training to facilitate the signing of loan documents properly. Notary signing agents are notary publics, but not all notary publics are signing agents. In addition to taking the certification exam, signing agents are required to pass an extensive annual background check.
The timely receipt, signing, and return of your loan documents is crucial for the closing process. A Notary Signing Agent is entrusted with this task by your lender or title company.
We provide the following type of notarizations:
- Loan Signings
- Acknowledgments
- Affidavits & Jurats
- Copy Certification
- Divorce Documents
- Adoption Documents
- Signature Witnessing
- Verification on Oath/Affirmation
- Passport Applications & Consent Forms

Preparing for Your Appointment
Are online notarized documents accepted in my state?

Do I need to download any software?
No. All you need to join your online notary session is a device that has audio and video capabilities.
How soon can I schedule my notary appointment?
Notaries are required to review the documents to identify the type of notarization they will be performing and what documents need to be notarized to complete your order.
General notarizations may be scheduled immediately based on availability. For loan signings, we have a 4-hour minimum notice to review all documents and travel to the client.
We require at least 24-48 hours to complete a copy certification appointment.

How long will my notary session take?
On average, a simple notary session can take up to 15 minutes.
However, complex notarizations such as loan signings can take between 45 to 60 minutes. This depends on the amount of documents that must be reviewed, your familiarity with those documents, whether the closing agent needs to be conference called to address concerns prior to proceeding, and any other challenges faced during the session.
