Documents that need to be sworn, affirmed or declared can be notarized or commissioned.  For example, I can notarize or commission:

• Affidavits and statutory declarations

• Consent letters for children travelling abroad

• Marital status/common-law union statutory declarations

• Acknowledgements

• Application forms

• Invitation letters

• Proof of loss forms

​

Documents that need to be certified as being true genuine copies of an original are notarized.  The following are examples of the types of documents that I can notarize for you are:

• Copies of driver's licenses

• Copies of passports

• Copies of diplomas

• Copies of university/college transcripts

• Copies of birth certificates

• Copies of marriage certificates

• Copies of death certificates

• Copies of powers of attorney

​

I also notarize signatures as genuine.

​

If your notarized documents are for use outside of Canada, they may need to be "legalized" through a 2-step process.  First,  Global Affairs Canada authenticates my notarial seal with their own stamp, and then the documents are sent to the appropriate Embassy or High Commission for their stamp.
