What is a Notary?
A Notary Public is an officer who is authorized by state law to certify certain documents. Many documents must be notarized before they become legally effective. The purpose of notarizing a document is to protect those who use it from forgeries. When the notary signs the document, they certify that the person who signed it actually appeared before them. The signer of the document swears to the notary that the signature on the document is their own. The notary records that fact, then stamps their seal on the document. A Notary is allowed to charge for their services in most states.
As the nation's professional identity screeners for hundreds of sensitive transactions, from buying a home to seeking a power of attorney or obtaining an advanced healthcare directive, Notaries are in the unique position to prevent identity theft and document fraud. The five year accreditation - the longest granted by the U.S. Department of Education- provides a level of assurance to consumers that when sensitive documents are notarized by an NNA trained professional, the Notary handling the transaction has received the highest quality training available in the nation.
The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Services Modernization Act (GLBA) was enacted by Congress to protect consumers' sensitive private information. To comply with this law and the Interagency Guidelines that have been set, the mortgage industry has begun to require background screening for all persons — including Notary Signing Agents — involved in the lending process who have access to borrowers' private financial information.
