Police reports and DMV crash affidavits are separate filings with different agencies. A police crash report documents law enforcement's investigation, while the DLD-68 affidavit is submitted to the Nevada DMV Financial Responsibility Unit explaining why you missed the 10-day SR-1 filing deadline. Only the DMV filing prevents license suspension.

Many drivers assume filing a police report satisfies all post-crash obligations. In reality, Nevada law (NRS 484E.070) requires independent DMV notification within 10 days for any crash involving injury, death, or property damage exceeding $750. Police reports are not forwarded to DMV's Financial Responsibility Unit. When that deadline passes, you must submit a notarized DLD-68 affidavit to avoid automatic suspension.

📋 Key Differences:

• Police Report: Filed with law enforcement; establishes fault/liability for insurance claims
• DLD-68 Affidavit: Filed with Nevada DMV; sworn statement explaining late reporting; prevents license suspension
• Notarization Requirement: Police reports = no notary needed; DLD-68 = wet-ink notary signature mandatory
• Processing Agency: Police = local jurisdiction; DLD-68 = DMV Financial Responsibility Unit in Carson City

⚠️ Critical Timeline: If you miss the 10-day SR-1 window, DMV sends a suspension warning letter giving you 10-15 business days to submit a notarized DLD-68. Lake Mead Mobile Notary provides same-day DLD-68 notarization throughout Henderson, Las Vegas, and all Clark County areas, ensuring your affidavit reaches DMV before suspension takes effect.

Short answer: A Grant of Easement or Right of Way is completed with an acknowledgment. An Owner’s Affidavit, consent, or any sworn statement is completed with a jurat where the signer takes an oath or affirmation.

• Acknowledgment: Confirms identity and voluntary execution for the granting document. The notary verifies who signed and completes a Nevada compliant certificate so the Recorder can accept it.
• Jurat: Used when the signer is swearing to facts, such as an ownership or encroachment affidavit. The notary administers an oath or affirmation and witnesses the signature.
• Why this matters: Mixing certificate types is a common cause of rejection. If your easement packet was prepared out of state, we can add a compliant loose certificate when appropriate.
