Trigg Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 Good idea and a little drool may help too. The GZ folks like that type of dedication. Trust me. Link to comment
Feathers268 Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 Good idea, I will take it under advisement, but then, I am a much better drooler than she is. Link to comment
yyp Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 I guess too much is better than too little. However, you aren't really getting the notorization recognized by a foreign government. Unless you consider the American consulale at GZ a foreign government. A simple notary stamp will suffice. Best I can tell they only look at about 10% of I-134s.That is all true Trigg. A Notary Public will charge $20 (in California) per document/signature. Where the County Administration Notary Public will notarize several documents (I believe it was 5 or 6 documents in the complete packet) for $10 total. In my original post I did explain that the “Apostille” was intended for submission to a foreign government. Again it boils down to having your document(s) notarized then having the notarization certified by the County and the County certification certified by the Secretary of State (state level secretary, not federal.) It is more than is necessary, but I think it will reflect the effort to prepare the documents professional. Besides, as I said the golden state seal looks way cool, and shiny too. So even if you do not go for the whole “Apostille” process you should at least save yourself a few dollars by visiting your local County Administration for the Notary Public service. Link to comment
Trigg Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 I just love California. In TN you just go down to your local bank and they notorize everyhting for free. So Cal, keeping with tradition adds lots of gold bling bling and charges $20 bucks. Surf's up ya'll. Link to comment

Luo_Bin_&_Jialu Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 hey man....this is a civilized website...(not to be confused by the people who go to family reunions looking to pick up chicks) do you think we can keep the f****** language a little cleaner.... For example... "..the kleenex is on sale at the supermarket today, everyone is just swell. we all love one another and are baking cookies for the party." Link to comment
yyp Posted February 27, 2005 Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 You two are very funny. It is also funny that I live in California, and will be traveling in April with MM to have our wedding in Tennessee with my family. I do not appreciate the tone of the previous messages and would suggest that CFL is not an appropriate forum for your discussion. Link to comment

Out here everything has to have a charge so we can scare away those yolkals. Average of 60 days of rain per year, relativly cooler climat in summer and usually warmer in winter, no hurricanes or tornado's, snow only in the mountains(where it belongs), one of the most beautiful coastlines anywhere in the world, the Beach Boys, and the 6th largest economy on the planet. It's no wonder we have the most populouse state in the union. I mean if we didn't charge for everything, everyone would live here. Wish they ALL could be California Girls. Link to comment
