What is on an application to become a Notary Public?
The application form contains four parts: Part 1 requires typical personal information such as your name, street address, city and state, social security number, age, criminal history, citizenship and previous service as a Notary Public. Part 2 must be completed by an official empowered to take oaths such as a Notary, Deputy Clerk, or Clerk of the Court. Part 3 requires signature endorsements from two registered Virginia voters. Part 4 requires recommendation by a state official such as a Judge, Court Clerk, Deputy Clerk, Commonwealth’s Attorney, Assistant Commonwealth’s Attorney, Virginia Attorney General, Assistant Attorney General or member of the Virginia General Assembly. The Clerk of Court can also help you with this if you do not have access to any of the required individuals.
