This information is for renewing CA Notaries who's commission expire in 2008.
1. If your commission is expiring in 2008 and every year after, you must have your fingerprints taken and forwarded to the CA (DOJ) and the FBI.
2. Two 2X2 inch color photographs must be stabled to your CA application.
3. Beginning Jan 2008 when a CA Notary renews you will have to be fingerprinted and a new picture sent with his/her application sent to our Sec Of State to renew a license.
This same procedure will occur every 4 years.
I am teaching Saturday Dec 8th at the Marriott Courtyard at LAX on Century Blvd and if you want your fingerprints and picture taken the cost is $80 for fingerprinting to both agencies and $10 to have your picture taken. Just show up 7:30 am -9:00 am.
