Nevada apostille authentication is required for official documents destined for any of the 120+ Hague Convention member countries. Lake Mead Mobile Notary provides document preparation, notarization when required, and courier coordination to submit your documents to the Nevada Secretary of State for apostille authentication.

Note: The apostille certificate itself is issued exclusively by the Nevada Secretary of State. Mobile notaries cannot issue apostilles—we coordinate notarization, document review, and expedited submission to ensure correct processing.

📋 Common Documents Requiring Apostille:

1. Business & Corporate Documents: Articles of incorporation, corporate resolutions, bylaws, powers of attorney for business, Certificates of Good Standing (certified copy from SOS Business Division)
2. Personal & Legal Documents: Notarized affidavits, powers of attorney, consent letters, name change affidavits, guardianship authorizations
3. Vital Records: Certified copies of birth, marriage, and death certificates from Nevada Vital Records
4. Educational Documents: Notarized transcripts, diplomas, and degree certificates
5. Court Documents: Certified copies of judgments, divorce decrees, adoption orders, or other court-issued records

⚠️ When Certified Copies Are Needed: Vital records and court documents must be certified copies from the issuing agency before apostille. Notarized documents (affidavits, POAs) are apostilled as signed originals.

🌍 Hague Convention Coverage: Over 120 countries participate, including Canada, China, Bangladesh, Saudi Arabia, and most of Europe, Asia, Africa, and South America. For non-Hague countries (e.g., Taiwan, UAE), federal authentication through the U.S. Department of State is required in addition to Nevada SOS authentication.

🚀 Our Apostille Coordination Service Includes:

• Pre-submission review of notarized or certified documents
• Preparation of apostille request forms per Nevada SOS guidelines
• Courier hand-delivery to Nevada Secretary of State (standard or expedited)
• Tracking and status updates until return delivery

🏢 Service Areas: We coordinate apostille submissions for Henderson business districts, Summerlin West residencies, and Las Vegas Strip hotels. Expedited and same-day mobile notary appointments available Monday–Saturday.

Yes. A Property Manager or Agent may sign the utility affidavit if they show written authority to act for the owner. Utilities often require a specific Power of Attorney or a Management Agreement that explicitly authorizes utility actions. Many providers also ask that the authorization itself be notarized. Without verified capacity, the counter will reject the filing.

We notarize both the agent’s authorization and the affidavit in one visit across Southern Highlands, Green Valley Ranch, Seven Hills, and Rhodes Ranch. See Power of Attorney, Affidavits and Sworn Statements, and Notary with Witnesses Provided.

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.
