sputnik Posted April 21, 2017 Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 Does anyone know where a notary Public is to verify my signature? I know a Notario here is a lawyer but a notary to notarize documents is different. And also, has anyone had any experience with a notary not being accepted in the U.S. with his seal on a document? Thanks for any help anyone can give. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intercasa Posted April 21, 2017 Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 Many times they do not accept Mexican notaries even though most state civil codes say they can if they also get an apostille. The best way to avoid problems is to have the notarization done by the US Consulate or talk with the person or agency accepting the notarization to clarify any extra requirements for using a Mexican notary. I am going through an issue with the county recorder in a county in Texas and they will not accept a property deed signed by a Mexican notary.

If you meant what you wrote a Notary to notarized signatures in Mexico is differernt is incorrect. A Notario/a is a specialized lawyer - the same Notario/a that does transfering of property titles and the writting of wills also notarizes signatures.

gogirl Posted April 21, 2017 Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 We ALWAYS use the notaries from the US consulate. It's so we can continue to receive my husband's pension and we never mess around where that is concerned. IMO cheaper is not always the best way to go. Here is some information. https://mx.usembassy.gov/embassy-consulates/guadalajara/lake-chapalaajijic-services/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sputnik Posted April 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 hello pappysmarket,,,,penny wise, pound foolish? Ive heard alot of sayings but never that one....what does it mean?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pappysmarket Posted April 21, 2017 Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 It's a British saying and refers to their money, penny or actually pence, and the British pound. There are many uses and meanings for this phrase but in this instance it would refer to trying to find the cheapest notary but not heeding the advice of finding out first if a Mexican notary will be accepted for the task. So possibly saving a few pennies at first but then having to spend more pounds to do it right the second time. Basically seeing the small details but not grasping the bigger picture. I'm sure Sr. Google would list even more and better examples. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
