Frequently asked questions
- How do I complete the notarized property owner authorization?
- The property owner signs Attachment B before a notary. The notary completes the jurat after the owner personally appears and swears the authorization is true and correct.

- Georgia has no remote online notarization statute of its own. Georgia law recognizes acknowledgments taken by notaries of other states (O.C.G.A. §44-2-21), but this form includes a jurat; confirm with the city if unsure.
