Can you notarize your own documents?

  1. Yes, but only in emergency situations

  2. Yes, if it's a family document

  3. No

  4. Yes

The correct answer is: No

Notarizing your own documents can create conflicts of interest and potentially constitute fraud. A notary public must not have a personal or financial interest in the documents they notarize. This also applies to family documents, so option B is incorrect. While notarizing in emergency situations may be allowed in some states, it is not a general rule and should not be relied upon. Therefore, options A and D are also incorrect.
