@cynthialwallace Congratulations Cynthia.

So for the title and or rank…You’re a “ **Notary Public** ” and your serial number can be found on your **Notary Certificate** and your **Notary Stamp**. It should be a combination of letters and numbers. Correct, you’re not the settlement agent.

Have a great weekend and a successful signing tomorrow.

Cynthia, we’ve **ALL** been in your shoes, so there’s no harm in asking me a direct question ever. If I don’t see your question, I’m sure someone from the forum will.

Now then, that document is for the signer(s) to sign. The **signer is the principal in this case and his/her/their signature would be considered the seal**.

My state doesn’t assign numbers for notaries so I write N/A when asked for one.

Wait, so there’s no identifying number on your notary stamp?

Nope. Michigan doesn’t assign any number. It’s name, state, county and expiration date only.
