- Every signature, the notary's stamp and the seal must be easy to read.
- Upload the PDF, up to 50 MB. We do not take Word files or pictures.
- Keep the signed original. We tell you if the county asks for it.
How it works
- Upload one PDF scan of the signed, notarized document.
- We read it and show you what we read, so you can correct it before you pay.
- Our office checks the scan by hand within one business day of payment.
- If something needs fixing, we email you what and where before anything goes to the county.
- When it is right, we file it with the county and email you the recorded copy when the county returns it.
