A notary can notarize immigration documents, but cannot fill out forms, provide immigration advice, or act as an immigration attorney. Only attorneys can provide legal counsel. ### What ID is accepted for notarizing immigration documents? Most notaries accept valid government-issued photo ID including passports (domestic or foreign), state IDs, and driver's licenses. Some states also accept consular IDs. ### Do translated documents need to be notarized? USCIS requires that translations include a certification by the translator. This certification is then notarized — the translation itself is not directly notarized. ## Other Document Guides [Power of Attorney ](/documents/power-of-attorney)[Real Estate Deed ](/documents/real-estate-deed)[Affidavit ](/documents/affidavit)[Last Will and Testament ](/documents/will-and-testament)[Loan Documents ](/documents/loan-documents)[Vehicle Title Transfer ](/documents/vehicle-title-transfer) ## Ready to Get Your Immigration Documents Notarized?
