A new class has been posted in the Classroom tab. This class covers one of the most important responsibilities of a New Jersey notary: how to properly secure your journal and what to do immediately if it is ever lost or stolen. We also address something most of us would rather not think about, but absolutely must plan for: what needs to happen to your notary journal and notary supplies in the event of your death. We’ve taken this one step further by creating estate planning forms specifically for notaries. These documents can be printed and kept with your important legal papers. They provide your loved ones with clear, written instructions on where your journals are located, how to access them, and what steps must be taken to properly submit them to the State. This class is not just about compliance. It is about protecting the public, protecting your commission, and protecting the people who may one day be responsible for your records. We strongly encourage every member to complete this class.

We didn't just move our community. We enhanced our notary locator too. On our previous system, nearly all of our members chose not to publish their information on the Notary Locator. We'd love to see more of you (and better listings!) on this revision. Here is link. Go ahead and look. 😃 locator.newjerseynotaryassociation.org We're asking everyone to please take a moment to update your member profile. The information collected is for maintaing NJNA's official membership roster... AND, it's how you can keep your Notary Locator profile up to date. As you move along, you'll have the options to opt-in or opt-out of being published in the directory. No more web forms after this. I hesitantly prahhh--missss... oh... OUCH! excuse me. My fingers were crossed and now they're probably stuck like that forever! CLICK HERE TO UPDATE YOUR MEMBER PROFILE.

Hi Members, Thanks for your patience with us. We have decided to move our community to this new platform. We believe that this new will provide a much better user experience for all. Please let us know if you have any recommendations or feedback. A classroom tab will be opening soon, with detailed information that will be helpful to you. Thanks for being part of our NJNA community. Patrick
