County recorders will reject documents with notarization errors—dates, signatures, venue, or acknowledgment language—rendering your document invalid for recording. Correction depends on severity: minor errors in the certificate might be fixed with corrections initialed by the notary; major errors usually require re-notarization with both parties present.

Common Notary Mistakes That Cause Rejection:

• Incorrect date (wrong day, month, or year on notarial certificate)
• Missing signer name or title on acknowledgment
• Notary failed to include their commission number or expiration date
• Venue listed incorrectly (county/state mismatch)
• Notary signature missing or illegible

🔧 How to Fix It:

If the error is typographical on the certificate, the original notary may correct it by striking through and adding the accurate information, then initialing and dating. However, most county recorders require re-notarization to ensure legal compliance. Contact your title company or the recording office immediately to determine the specific fix needed for your document.

🚀 Expedited Re-Notarization:

Mobile notaries offer same-day or next-day re-notarization appointments throughout Henderson and Downtown, preventing further delays. Professional notarization services ensure accuracy on first attempt, saving time and frustration.

In a Nevada mortgage package, only some documents are notarized. The most common notarized document is the Deed of Trust, which secures the property as collateral. Other pages that often require notarization include specific affidavits (identity, occupancy, or name variations) and certain title or escrow affidavits when the closing instructions call for them. Many lender forms are executed without notarization and only need signatures or initials.

• Typically notarized: Deed of Trust, corrections/limited power of attorney when required by title, occupancy or identity affidavits, compliance or gap affidavits, and select title affidavits.
• Usually not notarized: Promissory Note, Closing Disclosure, initial escrow disclosures, privacy notices, and most lender specific acknowledgments that only require signatures or initials.
• Jurat vs acknowledgment: Affidavits and sworn statements use a jurat with an oath or affirmation. The Deed of Trust and similar instruments use an acknowledgment to confirm identity and voluntary execution.
• Non borrowing spouse: In community property scenarios, a non borrowing spouse may need to sign certain title documents. The specific pages and notarizations depend on title instructions and vesting.
