Acknowledgment
The taking of an acknowledgment consists of positively identifying the signer of
a document. The signer need not sign in the notary’s presence but must personally
appear before the notary and state that the signature on the document is his or
hers. Acknowledgments may be taken in an individual capacity or in a
representative capacity (as an authorized representative of another – for example,
as officer of a corporation for and on behalf of the corporation or as an attorney
in fact for another person). These short form certificates are sufficient to
meet the requirements of the law.
