Just wanted to add some further clarification to what I stated previously.
We have verified with the Florida state department that notaries can obtain a copy of their notary public bond from the state department for $1. We understand that not all notaries may be willing to pay for a copy of their bond, so it might be worth checking to see if either the company you applied to become a notary public with or the underwriters of the bond can provide you with a copy at no cost.
There are some states, like Florida, where the bond is either part of the paperwork to become a notary public or it is a section on the application itself. If it is a section on the application, we are able to verify the bond when the application is uploaded to Snapdocs. If the bond is its own page or document within a multi-page application or packet, we are able to verify the bond if only the page that contains the bond is uploaded.
It's clear that this has caused some confusion, so we've provided some new resources to help clarify what we're looking for when it comes to surety bonds: http://support.snapdocs.com/hc/en-us/sections/204919507
If you believe that a credential of yours was incorrectly rejected, don't hesitate to reach out to us at support@snapdocs.com and we'd be happy to look further into it. |
