Hmm, Brenda,
I've seen ID letters, however none like the one you've described. Lawyer's answer seems to not answer the question totally which is typical of lawyers (work with them all day) . However, if you feel that the ID certificate is not to the standards you were taught and know, could you in this case provide your own certificate, therefore making right what was wrong? Of course, you'd have to call the title company at closing to get permission to do this and charge an extra fee to attach the correction. That would be my move. More than likely, the title person you get on the phone will say yes, because in my experience, they don't really know what we do anyway.
Don't know the laws in Texas for notarization, but seems to me this is a question for NNA.
Hope you find the answer for next time.
