  • One form of ID. Here's a list of acceptable IDs.
  • The last four (4) digits of your U.S. Social Security number
  • A strong internet connection and a valid email address
  • An iPhone, iPad, Android device or computer with video and audio capabilities
  • 15 minutes to complete your online notarization
  • A credit card to pay the $25 notarization fee
  • Important: If you are married, your Spouse will need to complete the Spousal Waiver.

THE PROCESS
How it Works
1. Download and save your TIAA form that required notarization. Upload your form to Notarize in a single PDF file.
 
As a TIAA participant, ensure that your signature is on the form, whether through digital or a physical signature. If you need to sign the form manually, you will need to scan and save the document in the PDF file format. Be sure to include all pages – not just the page that requires notarization.

2. Verify your identity.
 
Notarize uses patent-pending forensic analysis to verify government-issued photo IDs and passports. When prompted, you'll capture images of your photo ID using the video capabilities on your computer or phone and then answer a few questions. Notarize will confirm your identity in seconds.

3. Connect with a live notary agent.
 
As the Notarize.com customer who needs their signature notarized, connect with a licensed electronic notary public over live video to sign your form. The Notarize agent will confirm your identity, witness your signature, and assist you throughout the process.
