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.

If a county recorder rejects your deed due to improper notarization (wrong date, missing notary signature, incorrect venue, incomplete acknowledgment language), the remedy is typically re-notarization of the same deed rather than drafting an entirely new document. Minor errors in the notarial certificate can sometimes be corrected through amendment; major errors require the grantor to re-sign and have the document re-notarized.

Typical Fixes (No New Deed Needed):

✅ Re-notarization with corrected certificate attached
✅ Corrective affidavit prepared by notary explaining & curing the error
✅ Notary amendment striking through incorrect information and initialing corrections
✅ New notarial certificate on same deed (notary signs and dates the new certificate)

❌ When You May Need a New Deed:

• The legal description of property contains errors
• Grantor or grantee name is misspelled or incorrect
• The property transfer terms or conditions were altered
• The deed was never properly signed to begin with (beyond notary's control)

🏠 Next Steps:

Contact your title company immediately with the recorder's rejection letter. They'll advise whether a re-notarization, corrective affidavit, or new deed is required. Professional real estate closing notaries in Henderson and Downtown Summerlin provide same-day or next-business-day re-notarization to prevent closing delays.
