Marian's situation is a little unusual but I am sure she would agree with me that
the vast majority of CD Witness notarizations occur in hospitals, nursing homes,
and convalescent homes.
The problem in CA is the elderly don't know he/she need to get a CA Senior ID issued by our DMV and they think a Soc Sec Card/Medicare card/etc is okay after they quit driving.
I wish CA would make more (Public Service Announcements) about the Senior ID card.
Honestly, most people in CA don't know it's available.
I had one yesterday, that I told the daughter she needed to get this Senior ID for her dad ( I always tell them on the phone before the appt) and when I got to house we used 2 neighbors to ID him.
He is "house bound" and she told me the DMV told her it would 1- 2 months (est) to get the camera crew to her father's home.
I think only 5 states allow 2 Credible Witnesses and at least I could get the document notarized for him.
