Do I attach a loose certificate? & Do I notarize this form?
Different lenders have different requirements. For all forms in all packages:
If the Jurat is there, and it meets your state requirements, notarize it.
If the Jurat is there, and it does not meet your statement requirements, attach a certificate that does.
If the Ack is there, and it meets your state requirements, notarize it.
If the Act is there, and it does not meet your statement requirements, attach a certificate that does.
If there is no Ack or no Jurat, do not try to notarize it.
You do not do anything except get the form signed if the borrowers are to sign it.
If there is a notary signature line but there is no notary certificate, as a general rule, notaries cannot decide which form to use. You should call the people who hired you to find out. Some experienced notaries say you can allow the borrowers to choose which form to use.
