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.

🏠 We provide same-day NVL-003 notarization at your home throughout Silverado Ranch, Henderson, and all of Clark County, ensuring proper jurat certificates that DMV accepts for the lower reinstatement fee.

Lake Mead Mobile Notary serves as an authorized representative to complete Form I-9 Section 2 employment verification for international students working on campus in Enterprise. We examine your original identity and work authorization documents, verify their authenticity per USCIS guidelines, and complete the employer's verification requirements on your behalf.

Important: I-9 verification is NOT a notarial act—it is an authorized representative service separate from notarization. The I-9 form should not be notarized unless specifically requested by the employer (which is rare). This is one of the most misunderstood aspects of I-9 processing.

📋 Complete I-9 Verification Process for International Students:

1. Student completes Section 1: Fill out employee information section on or before your first day of work, including name, address, date of birth, Social Security Number, and citizenship/immigration status
2. Gather acceptable documents: Provide original documents from List A (e.g., unexpired foreign passport with valid I-20 and employment authorization) OR combination of List B (identity) + List C (work authorization)
3. Schedule authorized representative appointment: We meet you at your residence, campus, or convenient Enterprise location within 3 business days of your employment start date (federal requirement)
4. Representative completes Section 2: We physically examine your original documents, record document information, attest to their authenticity, and sign Section 2 with our business information

⚠️ Real-World Example - F-1 Student On-Campus Work Authorization:

• Student hired for on-campus library position starting Monday, September 15
• Student completes I-9 Section 1 on September 15 (first day)
• Student presents: Valid passport (List A identity), I-20 showing on-campus work authorization (List A work auth), Social Security card (List C backup)
• We meet student Tuesday, September 16 at Enterprise apartment (within 3-day deadline)
• Result: Compliant I-9 completed, student can continue working

Different scenario - Incomplete documentation:

• Student presents expired passport
• I-20 doesn't show work authorization endorsement from DSO
• Result: Cannot complete I-9, student must obtain proper documents from international student office before employment can continue

💡 Why Authorized Representative Service Matters: Many international students are unfamiliar with I-9 requirements and risk employment termination due to incomplete or late verification. Common errors include: (1) Confusing I-9 verification with notarization, (2) Missing the 3-business-day deadline, (3) Presenting photocopies instead of original documents, (4) Using expired documents. Our I-9 verification service ensures USCIS-compliant completion to protect both student employment and employer compliance.

🏢 Service Areas for I-9 Verification: We provide mobile I-9 authorized representative services throughout Enterprise student housing, Summerlin West apartment complexes, and Downtown Las Vegas near UNLV campus. Available Monday-Saturday with same-day and next-day appointments to meet federal 3-day deadlines.

Note: If you need related notarization services (e.g., affidavits for visa applications, consent forms), those are separate notarial acts—see our Notary with Witnesses service.
