You will fill out the Apostille request form with us at your appointment and we will conduct the notarization. If the appointment is at 9 or 9.30 am it is likely that your documents can be returned to you the same night. We reserve the right to return them the next day if the Secretary of State closes their offices due to extreme weather, a national security incident, etc. If there is no such issue we will take your document to the Secretary of State and process it there. It usually takes less than five hours. We will then meet you back at our office or the location of your choice in our service area to return the document.
