These simple steps to checking identification should be followed every time you perform a notarization for a stranger. To learn more visit: https://bit.ly/StepsToCheckID.
In order to follow these steps, ask the signer to hand you the ID so you can inspect it.
STEP 1: Look at the photo on the ID and then look at the signer. Then do it again. Make sure the photo and physical description reasonably match the signer.
STEP 2: Check the expiration date.
STEP 3: Make sure all informational elements on the ID are present — both front and back.
STEP 4: Use the blue light and magnifying glass to check the ID’s security features.
Step 5: Have the individual sign your journal so that you can compare the signature in the journal with the one on the ID. Like the photograph and physical description, check the signatures to see if they are reasonably similar.
