I’m curious how a Notary Signing Agent gets paid. Do I send an invoice? Do I wait until the assignment is completed? What should be my next step after mailing back the loan package? — J.R., Texas
Notary Signing Agents are paid after the assignment has been completed. The payment terms usually are stated in the agreement you signed with the contracting company. Each company you work for will have their own rules. You should follow any procedures and duties for receiving payment that are outlined in the contract.
Hotline answers are based on the laws in the state where the question originated and may not reflect the laws of other states. If in doubt, always refer to your own state statutes. – The Editors
