Question 1

Do I sign the affidavit before the appointment?

Accepted Answer

No. Leave it unsigned. You sign it in front of Leonel after he checks your photo ID.

Question 2

Can Leonel tell me what my affidavit should say?

Accepted Answer

No. Leonel is a notary, not an attorney, so he cannot write the document, choose a form or give legal advice. Ask the person or business requesting it which form they accept.

Question 3

Who needs to be at the appointment?

Accepted Answer

The person signing the affidavit must attend with a valid government-issued photo ID. If more than one person must sign, each of them needs to attend with their own ID.
