Use a jurat when the signer makes a sworn statement. In Henderson guardianship filings this typically includes affidavits, declarations supporting the petition, and any statement that must be sworn true. The signer appears, takes an oath or affirmation, and signs in our presence.

Use an acknowledgment to confirm identity and voluntary execution for documents that are not sworn statements. Common examples are Acceptance and Oath of Guardian forms that use acknowledgment language, Power of Attorney documents related to care, and caregiver authorization forms.

• ID and completeness: All signers present valid government issued ID. Forms must be complete with the correct county venue and required exhibits attached.
• Witnesses: If the form requires independent witnesses, request our Notary with Witnesses Provided service.
• Scheduling: We offer same day mobile service across Henderson and Anthem with flexible evening availability.

With properly notarized NVL-003 Dormant Vehicle Affidavit, Nevada DMV reinstatement costs $252 total. Without NVL-003 (because you drove during the lapse), you face operating without insurance court penalties of $500-$1,000 for first offense, $1,000-$1,500 for second offense within 3 years, plus the $252 DMV reinstatement fee, totaling $752-$1,752.

This cost difference explains why NVL-003 generates so much discussion across insurance forums. The savings are substantial, but only if your situation legitimately qualifies (vehicle was truly not driven during suspension).

💰 Complete Cost Breakdown by Scenario:

📋 What's Included in the $252 DMV Reinstatement Fee: This is Nevada's standard registration reinstatement fee when insurance compliance is restored. It applies whether you use NVL-003 or pay court penalties. The difference is that NVL-003 lets you avoid the additional $500-$1,500 operating without insurance fines by certifying the vehicle was never driven.

⚠️ Why NVL-003 Must Be Notarized: DMV requires proper jurat notarization because the affidavit is your sworn legal defense against operating without insurance charges. Without notarization, DMV rejects the form and requires the court penalty route. Mobile notary service costs $45 for NVL-003 notarization, providing immediate savings of $455-$1,405 compared to the operating penalty route.

💡 The Math for Honest Drivers: Insurance payment failed, you parked the car immediately, used rideshare for 2 weeks until you noticed the lapse. Your costs with NVL-003: New insurance ($400-800 for 6 months) + NVL-003 notarization ($45) + DMV reinstatement ($252) = $697-$1,097 total. Without NVL-003 you'd pay: Same insurance + court fine ($500-$1,000) + DMV fee ($252) = $1,152-$1,752. The notarized NVL-003 saves you $455-$655 by documenting that you acted responsibly when you discovered the lapse.
