NOTARY SERVICES FOR DOMESTIC PARTNERS
I would be honored to notarize your Declaration of Domestic Partnership form for you.
I notarized the first one Friday, July 20, for a couple who had been together 7 years. Notarizing their signatures and hearing their oaths felt like I was taking part in their long-awaited celebration. They plan to drive to Olympia the first day registrations are accepted. They hope to be the first registered domestic partners in Whatcom County.

Monday - Friday 9am - 6pm
Saturday - Sundays 11am - 6pm
PLEASE CALL FOR APPOINTMENT (360)510-6530 Notary office is on Fraser Street in central Bellingham, WA. Address and directions will be provided during your phone call to make an appointment. I am sometimes out of the office working at nursing homes and other places. Appointments are needed to make certain I am in the office when you arrive.

THE DOMESTIC PARTNER REGISTRATION PROCESS
Registration is easy. Complete the form, sign it and give your oath in front of a notary, then deliver or mail the form and fee to the office in Olympia.
Our Secretary of State has done a good job of explaining the process on a Frequently Asked Questions website:
http://www.secstate.wa.gov/corps/dp_faq.aspx
The registration form just became available online July 18. You can fill out the form and print it. Don't sign it until a notary can watch you. The "signed and affirmed" wording in the area below your signature tells the notary to administer an oath to you.
