My Home Notary Service, by Manuel Puga, is open from 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. and offers Hospital emergency mobile notary services during and after business hours. These services are available at Skilled nursing facilities, nursing homes, hospice homes, Assisted and independent living facilities, and more. 

​

  • The signer must provide a CA-approved ID or credible identifying witnesses to notarize the documents that need notarization.

    • ​​​​A credible identifying witness is a person who vouches for a signer's identity.

      • ​​​The singer is responsible for providing credible identifying witnesses before meeting the notary. ​

​

  • Have your document in hand and completely filled out before meeting with the mobile notary, except for your signatures.​

    • For all documents needing notarization, you must address all blank spaces. California notaries, by law, are not allowed to notarize any incomplete document. If the blank spaces do not apply to you, you may write N/A (Not Applicable) in those spaces.

​

  • Ensure the name on the document matches the name on the photo ID. 

    • ​​If the name is discrepant, the notary cannot perform the notarization until the matter is resolved; however, a travel fee will be applied even if the notarization did not occur.​

​

  • ​​ If your document calls for signature/document witnesses, you are responsible for providing them and having them appear before the mobile notary.

    • A document witness is an individual who watches another individual sign a document.​

​

  • If the signer is at a healthcare facility, such as a skilled nursing facility, and has ombudsman requirements, make sure you have met that facility's ombudsman requirements before the notary notarizes your document. 

​

  • If your document does not have a notarial act,  you must contact the issuing or receiving entity to determine which notarial act is needed. If you do not know what type of notarial act to attach, the notary may show you the most commonly used California Notarial acts. However,  you will still be responsible for informing the notary of the one they need. 

​

  • Signers must be alert and aware and not under duress or heavy medication, which could prevent them from signing the documents. ​

  • If the notary believes the signer shows signs of lack of awareness, such as inability to communicate directly, confusion, reluctance to sign, etc., the notary may stop the notarization. ​However, travel fees may apply even if the notarization did not occur. 

​

  • I am not an attorney; therefore, by law, I cannot explain, interpret, instruct, advise, or direct you on completing a document. By doing so, I would be engaging in the unauthorized practice of law. If the requester/signer has an important question about the document, he/she should address it to either the issuing or receiving entity or an attorney.
