Frequently asked questions
- How do I get the Affidavit of Mailing notarized?
- Complete the affidavit after sending or hand-delivering hearing notices, then book a commissioned online notary. Sign the affidavit during the video session and include it with the required proof when filing.
- Do I need to notarize the entire zoning application?
- The packet’s notary block appears on the Affidavit of Mailing, where the applicant swears to the notice details. The form directs applicants to have that affidavit notarized.
- Can I use an online notary for this affidavit?
- New Jersey has permanently authorized remote online and remote ink notarization for its own notaries since October 2021. An authorized officer performing a notarial act in another state has the same effect under New Jersey law; confirm with the municipality if unsure.
- What else must I submit with the affidavit?
- The form calls for the original affidavit and white postmarked mailing receipts or a signed hand-delivery list. It says emailed copies will not be accepted and directs applicants to deliver the materials to the Zoning Board Secretary.
