Sorry to read that you’re in this situation. 😥

As indicated by @LindaH-FL please take advantage of the sage insights & wisdom immediately available within the Notary Cafe database via utilization of the **Search Function**. Many members have expressed that it’s _‘impossible’_ to find . . . so, I’ve inserted an image (below) to assist you in accessing and unlocking the wisdom available to members.

To get you started, here is a direct Notary Cafe url link to a page listing multiple threads that are on your specific topic:

Please know that the organization you reference (see quote below) is _ **definitively** _ a **For-Profit BUSINESS**.

The term “Association” within their business name is a misnomer . . .

Also, most don’t realize the NNA is based in CA and their “advice” is based on _ **CA law.** _

**Of course, this is NOT good for most states in the US.** When I was new & sought out their advice along with the advice of the owners of the training programs I successfully completed, their input was _ **incorrect** _ nearly without exception. The NNA is _ **NOT an ally** _ of Notaries/Professional Loan Signing Agents.

**Many have posed these valid queries (_and many more_) over the years:**  
“Why doesn’t the NNA work to get our Notary Fees increased?”  
“Why doesn’t the NNA fight against Remote Online Notarization [RON]?”  
“Why does the NNA charge such HIGH PRICES for their services & supplies?”  
“Why did the NNA Hotline give me incorrect information?”

You can see multiple examples about errant data provided by the NNA in this post:

> IMPORTANT NOTE/CAVEAT: @Myshadowmax When you have a query that you seek answers for, please do your due diligence and check with the appropriate licensing and notarial commission issuing agencies FIRST; not just one single For-Profit business entity. =\> It’s YOUR business reputation that’s on the proverbial line. The National Notary Association [NNA] is a For-Profit BUSINESS entity. If you perform a Search here on Notary Café, you’ll find many threads with posts from members who have succe…

_ **I always provide guidance to do your own due diligence and seek out the most informed, professional source of insights/wisdom/experience when new to a business sector.** _
