We had two documents that were Notarized by Military Officials, and because of that we are required to send those documents to the US Department of State to get them Apostilled. Instead of sending them to the US Department of State, we are going to just get them redone by a regular notary and this is going to save us months and months of time waiting to get them Apostilled from the US Dept. of State. With a regular notary, we can just send them to the Secretary of State of CA, and they are very quick with their turn around time as far as getting things Apostilled. This may sound super confusing to those who have never gone through this process, but believe me, it's confusing to us also! Only 2 more documents to go until all of our paperwork goes to the agency.
What a process.

That's fantastic! We didn't have or know about that option. Yes, seriously, I applied for a document June 15th, received it at the end of August. Then I had to turn around and send it back to DC ( to the building next door to where it came from!!), and we received it in early October! Glad you have an easier option :-)
ReplyDeleteHooray! That is great news! Good job on the investigative skills and finding a faster route.:) I second your statement: "what a process". So true. Lol :) Best of luck as you move ahead.
ReplyDeleteThank you ladies, this paperwork process has taken long enough, we can't afford to push it back any further than it already is with our military lifestyle timeline!
