RON allows an eligible notarial act to be completed remotely through approved audiovisual technology and identity verification procedures.

You need a compatible device with a working camera and microphone, a reliable internet connection, and a supported browser. Google Chrome is recommended.

Yes. As an Illinois remote online notary, I may perform remote online notarizations for signers located anywhere. I must be physically located in Illinois during the session, and the notarization must comply with Illinois statutes.

Bring a valid, unexpired government-issued photo ID, such as a driver’s license, state-issued identification card, or U.S. passport. Your ID must meet the online notarization platform’s requirements. Additional identity verification may apply.

Yes. I provide witnesses for a fee when requested in advance.

Your identification must be current and meet the requirements of the notarization platform and applicable law. If you do not have an acceptable, valid ID or cannot complete the required identity verification, I will not be able to complete the notarization. Please contact me before your appointment if you have questions about your ID.

You may submit an appointment request. Your appointment is not confirmed until Teena Marie Notary sends a confirmation email.

No. We cannot interpret documents, prepare legal paperwork, provide legal advice, or choose the notarial act. Contact your attorney or document preparer for legal questions.

No. For notarizations with Teena Marie Notary, all documents requiring your signature must be signed in my presence, during your remote online notarization session. Please wait until your appointment to sign.

A signature by proxy may be possible in certain circumstances when a signer is physically unable to sign. The signer must be able to communicate their wishes, and the procedure must satisfy Illinois law and the requirements for the particular document. This can involve a designated person signing at the signer’s direction and special notarial wording. Please contact me before booking so I can review the situation and determine whether I can perform the requested notarial act. I cannot guarantee that every document is eligible.

No. Apostilles are issued by authorized government authorities. I offer apostille facilitation, courier, and coordination services to help you navigate the process.

Timing depends on the document, issuing authority, processing volume, and shipping. We provide an estimate after reviewing your request; timelines are not guaranteed.

Pricing varies based on document type, number of documents, government fees, shipping, and service requirements. Request a personalized quote for details.

The client is responsible for all shipping and mailing costs associated with sending documents to their designated destination. Shipping fees are separate from notarization fees and vary based on the destination, package size, and delivery method selected. Any applicable shipping charges will be communicated to the client before the documents are sent.

We accept credit and debit cards, Zelle, and PayPal. If none of these options work for you, let me know and we can discuss other arrangements. Payment instructions will be provided during booking or confirmation.

Same-day appointments are often available, but I recommend booking at least 24 hours in advance. Availability varies, and appointments are confirmed after you receive a confirmation from Teena Marie Notary.

Regular business hours are 10:00 AM–5:00 PM, Monday through Friday. Before- and after-hours appointments, including weekends, may be available by request and are subject to additional fees. Let me know the time you need and I’ll do my best to accommodate.

Appointment length depends on the document type, number of signers, identity verification, and time needed to review and sign. If you are unsure, I recommend allowing up to one hour so you do not feel rushed.
