Notary Public North York
Notary Public North York services help you get your documents ready for a bank, school, government office or use abroad. Mirzoyan Immigration Services offers appointments for certified copies, affidavits and documents requiring a witnessed signature. Bring your documents and the receiving organization’s instructions so we can help you prepare what’s needed.
Is a North York Notary Public Service Right for You?
You need a North York notary public when an institution will not accept your document on your word alone and demands a notary's signature and seal, a sworn oath, or a certified copy of an original. This service fits the person or business holding a document that has to satisfy a court, a government body, a bank, or a party abroad. It is the right fit if any of these describes your situation:
You need an affidavit or statutory declaration sworn or affirmed before a notary or commissioner in Ontario.
You need an invitation or sponsorship letter notarized for a parent, grandparent, or visitor, often for a super visa or visitor visa application.
You need a certified true copy of a passport, citizenship certificate, PR card, diploma, or other identity document.
You need a travel consent letter notarized for a minor child travelling internationally.
You need a real estate, mortgage, or vehicle ownership document notarized for a closing or transfer.
Your document is destined for use outside Canada and must be notarized before authentication or apostille.

What Mirzoyan Immigration Services Notarizes and Commissions
The firm applies the notarial certificate, signature, and seal, or commissions the oath, across the documents clients bring most often. The live menu spans personal, immigration, real estate, and corporate paperwork.
Affidavits and statutory declarations, including affidavit of service, sworn statement for a family gift of a used vehicle, and affidavit of marital status or dependents.
Certified true copies of a Canadian passport, citizenship certificate, birth certificate, driver's licence, diploma, degree, and other identity documents.
Immigration-related letters and forms, including travel consent letters, invitation letters, and forms filed with permanent residence, study permit, and visitor visa applications.
Real estate and financial documents, including closing documents, mortgage documents, acknowledgment and directions, promissory notes, loan agreements, and bank documents.
Corporate and commercial documents, including corporate resolutions, share or asset purchase agreements, commercial and residential leases, and letters of intent.
This list is not exhaustive. If a document is not named here, the firm can usually still assist, so ask when you book. The notary verifies your identity against government-issued photo ID, witnesses any signature executed in person, administers the oath or affirmation, compares an original to the copy being certified, and applies the seal. The notary does not perform apostille or authentication, which runs through Global Affairs Canada and the Ontario Ministry of Public and Business Service Delivery as a separate step.

How a North York Notary appointment works
Plan your North York notary appointment in five steps.
Book the right appointment. Choose an in-person, online or virtual-witnessing option, and confirm that the format fits your document. Tell us the document type and the number of signatures or copies you need.
Get your documents and ID ready. Bring valid government-issued photo ID and the receiving organization’s instructions. Have the original document available when you need a certified true copy.
Attend the confirmed appointment. Follow the booking instructions for your appointment format and make sure every required signer is available. Leave signatures blank when they must be witnessed.
Complete the requested notarization or commissioning. The appointment may involve witnessing a signature, taking an oath or affirmation, or comparing an original with a copy. Follow the instructions for the service you booked.
Check what comes next. Confirm the document’s return arrangements. If it will be used abroad, check whether the recipient also requires authentication, apostille or another step.
Check the booking calendar for available times.

The verified Toronto and North York in-person booking options each reserve a 15-minute slot. This is the booked appointment length, not a guarantee that every document can be completed within that time.

Authentication, apostille, translation and delivery are separate if needed, with their costs and timing confirmed separately.
Preparing for your North York notary appointment
Start with a quick document check so your appointment can focus on what you need done. Keep the document, your ID and any instructions together, ready for your appointment.
Bring the final version. Check names, dates and missing pages before you arrive. Bring the original when you need a certified copy; a phone photo is not a substitute.
Leave the right spaces blank. If a signature must be witnessed, wait for the appointment instructions before signing. Complete other details only as the form requires.
Plan for everyone who must sign. Check how many signers, signatures and copies are needed. Confirm any witness arrangements when booking, especially for a virtual-witnessing appointment.
Keep the recipient’s instructions handy. Bring the email, form or checklist from the bank, school, government office or other organization. Flag any required wording, translation or document format.
Tell us about your deadline. Mention when and where you will use the document before booking. Separate translation, delivery, authentication or apostille steps may need their own arrangements.
Unsure what to bring? Ask about your document before the appointment so you can arrive prepared.
Prepare your documents for their next step
Bring the instructions from the organization receiving your document, including any required wording, witness details or rules about copies. Have your original documents and valid photo ID ready, and leave signatures blank when they must be witnessed.
Before booking, check the number of documents, required signers and intended destination. Knowing these requirements before your appointment helps you bring the right documents and avoid missing signatures or copies.
Our notary’s signature and seal are on file with Ontario Official Documents Services (ODS). ODS compares signatures and seals on eligible documents for authentication or apostille. Further steps depend on the document and where it will be used.
