More about the mileage in a bit. Let's talk about increasing the max notary fee PER SIGNATURE from $2 to $10. If you have a signature page with even just 2 signatures, that is a total of $20 for that page instead of $4. And if you have even just 2 signature pages with 2 signatures on each page that is a total of $40 versus $8. In all the discussions I have seen online, this aspect of the new legislation seems to get lost in the discussion.
As far as the IRS mileage, I have always been told that is a calculation--or guide--that we as notaries need to know, especially at tax time. Prior to this legislation, mileage wasn't even mentioned in Indiana. So this is still an improvement over past legislation. |
