We’ve all been there: you’re finally sitting down to tackle your taxes, and then you realize that one specific form needs a notarization seal before it’s official.
In the old days, that meant a frantic trip to the bank or a shipping store, hoping they had a notary on-site and ready to help. But as an IAM Legal Plan member, you’ve got a better way.
Why a Notary Matters Right Now
Tax season isn’t just about the 1040. There are plenty of “just-in-case” moments where a notary becomes your best friend:
- Transitioning leadership: If you need a pro or a family member to handle IRS business for you, you’ll likely need a notarized Power of Attorney.
- Proof of residency or income: Some state credits or local tax breaks require a notarized Affidavit to prove you live where you say you do or earn what you say you earn.
- Protecting your identity: If you’re a victim of tax fraud (which we hope never happens!), the IRS often requires a notarized statement to get things sorted.

We’ve teamed up with Proof to bring the notary to you. While others pay $25 or more per signature, this is a free benefit for IAM members:
- Do it from your couch: Whether it’s 2:00 PM or 10:00 PM, you can meet with a notary online from anywhere.
