"They said it has to do with the way Cal. changed it's laws..."

It reads like you are in FLORIDA performing a notarization. As you know, you must follow Florida notarization laws and use a Florida compliant notarization block - NOT California.

I've discovered, once again, that a number of loan schedulers when instructing a notary "you must follow the new California law," do NOT understand that a notary follows the laws of the state they are in; i.e., a document notarized in Connecticut secured by Connecticut real property DOES NOT REQUIRE "the new California compliant notarization block." Two issues: 1. I must follow my own state's law and 2. the document is not being recorded by a California County Clerk; it is being recording by a Connecticut Town Clerk. I'll not even go to the U.S. Constitution regarding the federal requirement for a state to accept a proper notarization performed in another state.

One major signing company has already removed me from its "preferred list" because as a Connecticut notary public performing a notarization in Conneticut on a mortgage deed to be recorded in Connecticut I REFUSED to send a new notarization page for every document using the new CALIFORNIA notarization blocks. If their Quality Control staff refuses to accept the U.S. Consitution and Connecticut notarization laws, I'd rather not have my name on anything they are doing. As it was, the QP person faxed me copies of my notarization blocks THAT SHE CHANGED!!! It's obvious, because the handwriting doesn't match.

Thank you. They said it has to do with the way Cal. changed it's laws at the being of this year.

I live in Florida and do closings here. I have been getting POA's/Correction agreements with an Ack. section at the bottom and it also includes a Jurat at the bottom. The Ack. states for "The State Of Cal."

Do I need to notarized both the Ack. and Jurat changing the state in the Ack. section to Florida? Or, can I just do the Jurat? I'm confused on this one. It is new and just started showing up on the docs. Thank you.
