Anyone here a Notary or former Notary?

[murksiderock]

Thinking of trying this out, as with anything my criminal background is a problem but I'm looking to see if there's loopholes around it. As in, if I can pass the exam and all with flying colors and present myself as an upstanding civilian...

Nobody here does this?

I passed the test and I’m waiting for my commission to come in the mail. I heard you can make good money with it

It is kinda shocking that no one on here does it...

I just got off probation last Sunday, so I was waiting for that to be the first domino to fall before I tried it. Now I'm gonna put a little distance on the probation, a year or two, NC law says that you have to be a minimum of 10 years removed from your last case or you'll be automatically denied...

I think there's a loophole in here somewhere, no way I believe I gotta wait a full decade. Let me get some space on the case and make these muhfukkas make a difficult decision, but this is something I'm still very much interested in pursuing!

What state are you in, how old are you, and what motivated to push down the notary path?

Lowkey I’ve considered it. Might have to look more into specifics since I’m in between jobs

i had a notary stamp before, i don't think you can charge more than a few bucks per transaction. not sure how you would make "good money".... compared to my real job at least lol

yall might be talking about something different though because i didn't have to take an exam

I heard it’s a really saturated hustle now because so many folks do it,but you might have luck In your area. The ultimate hustle is getting that pastor certificate online and feasting on the gullible

It's not the highest-paying profession but it's a decent one with crossover appeal!

What state are you in?

Damn. One loophole I can think of is if you start your own singing agency and hire other people to go out and notarize documents. You charge the client $150, pay the notary $100 and you pocket $50.

I’m in NY. Bout to be 35. I really don’t want to go back to working in an office and I’m not trying to drive Uber, so I figured I’d try this out. Been seeing people who claim to make $10k a month or more.

Yeah, you can only charge so much for each signature. I think it’s $3. Where you make your money is the travel fees. You can travel to hospitals, nursing homes, jails etc, as they always need notaries. You can also do fingerprinting, and get business from title insurance and mortgage companies who hire you to go to people’s houses and do their loan closings.

I work in banking, and I’ve passed the notary exam twice, but never got my commission due to my former employer’s fukked up administration.
One of my coworkers at my current job is a notary. Although our employer paid for him to get the license, he’s free to use it for his own financial gain after work hours. He showed me how many outside requests, the only drawback is that they tend to need appointments between 9-5. In California notaries charge $15 a signature. Some documents are complicated, and could require dozens of signatures. A corporation might have you come in to serve a whole department of employees, that money will add up quickly.

And to answer OP’s question, the agencies in charge take this shyt seriously. They will find out if you’re lying about your past.

There are regulations in NC where they cap how much you can charge. You and the person who's name is on the document both have to be present (so no agents) I passed the exam but didn't pursue it because of dui 7 yrs ago. Good side hustle but not banking.
