sonjack2847 Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 Try a lawyer most of them are notaries, there must be one by immigration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, we have had to have several done and it seems every attorney we have seen is also able to notarize documents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Berkowitz Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 (edited) It could also depend on where the notarized document is going... is it staying in the Phils?... or is it going to your home country? A local lawyer in the Phils notarized a document that I sent to the USA, and it was refused and returned to me, with a directive to take it to a US Embassy or Consulate for a notary stamp.

TimL Posted June 7, 2019 Posted June 7, 2019 I saw a legal office with “Notary” on the window in the next block after Landers on F. Cabahug going towards Ayala between Lhuiller and the bank on the corner. Sorry, I didn’t pay much attention to the bank name there as I use HSBC which is further up the road. Speaking of which, I just found out the other day that they moved HSBC around the corner from the old one. Guess I’m a little slow on the uptake around here. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get that one, anything to do with Visa's have to be notarized, so my way of thinking Visa's are legal documents just the same as any other document. Not unless it states on the document it has to Notarized by a said authority of that country. I only quoted Visa's as most of us have had dealings with Notarizing a mountain of paperwork, when dealing with legal documents. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At $50 a page I'm not surprised that they insist that documents have to be signed at the Consulate/Embassy! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its going to Australia but I have asked and any local notary can do it. It's just Identity proof, thats all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
