Are we required to initial if we cross out the county or state on the document we are notarized. Your feedback is greatly appreciated!

You own the notary instrument/document, you can make corrections…draw one line to strike through the mistake.

Yes, always initial a modification (change) to a certificate. Also, this rule applies to the signer when correcting mistakes within a document.
