Oath of two credible witnesses
We wrote another quick blog entry regarding WHEN you can use the oaths of two credible witnesses to identify a signer. We also specified WHICH STATES you are allowed to use the oaths of two credible witnesses in. Please refer to:
Credible witnesses from A to Z
to learn which states allow the use of oaths from two credible witnesses to identify a signer. If a notary public uses two credible witnesses, then the notary doesn’t need to know those credible witnesses, however, the credible witnesses should be able to tell the notary public the complete name of the signer(s). Please keep in mind that you should not use credible witnesses unless the signer either has no identification, or unless it is too difficult to obtain that identification (generally because it at a different place far away).
Please keep in mind that the notary public must administer an oath to the credible witnesses asking them to swear under oath as to the identity of the signer, and that the credible witnesses should sign the notary journal in the notes section as well. The notary must also identify the credible witnesses by means of identification documents such as a drivers license, passport, etc.
