Closed many times with Fidelity. The fidelity title company that I work with states that someday she will get around to getting me approved but is always too busy. Any way around that? Any advise would be wonderful! Thanks
I am not sure I understand your question. I do not mind helping people get approved. I can view the files and notes that other snapdocs clients add. If someone has a good record I can help.
Motivation to me is two fold
- I need fidelity approved signing agents Nationwide
- why not, if they have a good record why not? I don’t mind helping
Benefits to the signing agent, if you are approved you get more jobs, Fidelity is the largest title company in the country.
Signing agents cant always get approved with out a sponsor.
Signing companies cant without a sponsor either

if you have a sponsor you can go direct that is true. Those who know me however know I ask nothing in return.
But the more Fidelity approved signing agents we have in our notary records the better. We work on our list daily.

I don’t know why anyone would look a gift horse in the mouth. I know it is an old saying but if someone offers to help you should you be suspect? I made one comment on here about Fidelity and Lisa and Toni jumped right in and helped me become Fidelity approved. She has asked me for nothing. I have not closed for her in the past but I am very grateful for her help and will look for an opportunity to work with C2C

Hi, Lisa! Thanks for all your help increasing the level of education and skill in NSAs nationwide. Our profession - and yes, being a Notary Public is a profession, one of the oldest in recorded history! - is often overlooked, and sadly, new people certifying solely to “make big bucks quick working only when you want!” as a signing agent often do not seem to care about the profession they have joined.
Those of us out here who study changing laws to remain abreast, who actually talk to client firms to ensure we understand and comply with their needs, and who care about what we do appreciate you.

Good morning Lisa, would you please assist me in getting Fidelity Approval?.
How do you get fidelity approved, please?
Lisa, I am pretty sure I’m on your list of Fidelity approved NSA. Could you provide the date I was placed on your list so I’ll know when I will be approved as a stand-alone Fidelity Signing Agent? I also just received my Notary2Pro NSA certificate FYI.
Hi Lisa,
I’ve done some work for C2C. Would you be able to sponsor me for Fidelity? I would greatly appreciate it. Let me know if there is anything I need to do. Thanks!
I don’t see where anyone has said ‘how’ to apply for a stand-alone approval. A few people have asked but Lisa keeps replying. I don’t want to go through a signing agency. I have the insurance and all the qualifications. Can someone please give me the information.

It is my understanding that you have to be sponsored my an escrow officer or work under a signing service as an approved vendor for 2 years to apply to go direct. If you are doing direct business now then ask the escrow office to help push the app thur. You going by yourself is not very successful from what im told.

This is the million dollar question of the century! @LISA1 can you help us with this question? After a notary has been an “approved” Fidelity Notary for 2 years, you said in one of your comments on this thread that, a notary can THEN be independently approved through Fidelity as long as their E&O is increased to 100k. Is this true and if it is, who/where/how do we go/do to get this independent approval WITHOUT a sponsor?
Hi there,
after 2 years you can be hired by a Fidelity company escrow officer. I would suspect your E&O insurance needs to be $100k.
My company has to have $5 million E&O
$5 million of Automobile insurance
$5 million of Cyber Crime
$5 million of General Liability
I think there is another one… but cant off hand remember.
But as a signing agent, so far its just the E&O, and you will be listed on their web site for those agents who look for their own signing agents, and not through a company like C2C.
I hope this helps
Lisa

Thank you very much for your reply.
Lisa,
You say you “suspect” our E&O Insurance needs to be 100K. Do you know for sure? I’m asking because you seem to have a close direct relationship with them and I’ve been trying to get a response from Fidelity on this issue and have never been given clarification. How does an independent notary who has been sub-contractor Fidelity Certified for the 2 years, get certified as an independent notary with them? Explain what you mean by “hired by a Fidelity company escrow officer”.
