Yes. A sworn Affidavit for a Nevada matter can be notarized anywhere by a legally commissioned notary. The critical details are:

• Correct certificate type: Affidavits require a jurat with an oath or affirmation and signature in the notary’s presence.
• Accurate venue: The certificate must show the actual state and county where the oath occurred, not Nevada.
• Local compliance: The out-of-state notary should use their jurisdiction’s compliant wording. If needed, the filing attorney can attach a Nevada-compliant form for clarity.

For clients who cannot travel, we coordinate facility signings and witnesses. See Affidavits and Sworn Statements, Hospital Notarization Service, and Notary with Witnesses Provided. We routinely serve legal teams near UNLV Campus Area, Downtown East, The District at Green Valley Ranch, and the Las Vegas Convention Center.

When ICE audits your company, they issue a Notice of Inspection (NOI) requiring you to produce all I-9 forms and supporting documentation within 3 business days. The NOI specifies the timeframe of employment records to be inspected (typically all current employees plus terminated employees within the retention period), and employers cannot refuse the inspection or delay production beyond the 3-day deadline. ICE inspectors review every I-9 form for technical compliance—Section 1 completion, Section 2 timely verification, Section 3 reverification when applicable, proper document examination, correct dates, valid signatures, and adherence to acceptable document lists. Violations result in fines ranging from $288 to $2,861 per paperwork error, $716 to $28,619 per knowing hire of unauthorized workers, and $590 to $11,823 per document fraud violation, with average penalties of $500 to $5,000 per violation depending on violation severity and employer compliance history.

ICE audits are triggered by anonymous tips, disgruntled employee reports, industry-wide enforcement sweeps targeting high-violation sectors like hospitality, healthcare, construction, and food service, prior violations at the same company, rapid hiring growth that suggests potential unauthorized worker employment, federal contract bidding requiring compliance verification, and random audits conducted without specific cause. During the inspection, ICE may also conduct worksite enforcement actions including employee interviews, document verification with USCIS databases, and criminal investigations if evidence suggests systematic knowing hire violations or fraudulent document use. Employers found with substantial violations face monetary penalties, required termination of unauthorized workers, implementation of mandatory E-Verify enrollment, ongoing compliance monitoring, and potential criminal prosecution of owners, managers, or HR personnel if the violations demonstrate intentional non-compliance.

Lake Mead Mobile Notary helps Las Vegas and Henderson employers prepare for ICE audits by providing professional I-9 verification services that create audit-ready documentation from the outset. Our mobile notaries complete Section 2 verification with proper document examination, accurate data entry, and detailed record-keeping that withstands ICE scrutiny. We also offer pre-audit I-9 reviews for businesses concerned about compliance gaps, identifying common violations like missing signatures, incorrect dates, expired documents without reverification, and incomplete fields—allowing employers to correct issues through good-faith self-audits before ICE initiates formal inspections. This proactive approach significantly reduces penalty exposure and demonstrates due diligence that ICE considers when determining fine amounts.

Out-of-state buyers have three primary options for closing when they cannot attend in person: Remote Online Notarization (RON), local notarization in their home state, or coordinating a mobile notary to travel. Remote Online Notarization is increasingly accepted by title companies and Nevada lenders, allowing the buyer to sign and notarize documents via secure video call from anywhere, eliminating the need for travel or complex multi-state coordination.

Option 1: Remote Online Notarization (RON) ⭐ Recommended

• Buyer signs documents via video with commissioned Nevada eNotary
• No travel required; all-digital workflow
• Nevada law recognizes RON for real estate transactions
• Typically completes in 1-2 business days
• Lower cost than travel or apostille alternatives
• Title company must approve RON platform in advance

Option 2: Home State Notarization (More Complex)

• Buyer uses local notary in their home state
• Notarization must be recognized in Nevada (reciprocity applies)
• May require apostille certification for multi-state validity
• Coordination required with title company & lender
• Potential delays due to notary availability mismatch
• More expensive (notarization + apostille fees)

Option 3: Notary Travel (Premium Option)

• Mobile notary travels to buyer's location for in-person signing
• Rarely done due to cost and logistics
• Only practical for high-value transactions or complex situations

✅ Best Practice for Nevada Property Buyers:

Early communication is critical. Contact your title company within days of purchase agreement to confirm they support Remote Online Notarization. Many do. If your title company doesn't support RON, explore Option 2 with their guidance on apostille requirements. Lake Mead Mobile Notary provides real estate closing coordination, connecting out-of-state buyers with certified notaries in Las Vegas and Summerlin to streamline closing timelines.
