Many lawyers and notaries public in Toronto will only place an imprint of their embossed seals on your documents without the use of coloured notary seal stickers to save on cost. They will often say that it is not required by law and that those coloured notary seals are only for decorative purposes. While it is true that a coloured notary seal is not required by law on a document for use in Ontario, in many places outside Ontario and especially in other countries where their laws do require that a notary public seal be imprinted onto a gold or red notary public seal sticker. Knowing this, many lawyers and notaries public will charge extra fees if you needed a gold or red notary seal on your document.
The reasons that I decided on the gold notary public seal stickers include the following:
Therefore, the use of a gold notary public seal is not just for decorative purposes; it is my identity, legal authority, and the integrity to provide my clients with the best looking official document possible for submission to schools and government agencies; presentation is equally important as credentials. You will not get anything less than high quality professional looking notarized document with an official golden notary seal that will be recognized across the country and around the world.

The employers may have their own security and background check department or they may provide a list of companies specializing in identity and background searches. In either case, a consent to disclose information form will be given for the employees to complete and be sworn before a notary public or a commissioner of oaths as to the truth and correctness of the information entered or for identity verification purposes.

You are visiting this website because you or your fiancé or both were previously married and divorced in a foreign country/ out-of-country divorce, and now you wish to get your divorce decree/court order be recognized in Ontario so that you can marry each other legally in Ontario, Canada.
In order to obtain a Marriage Licence in Ontario after a divorce that occurred in a foreign country/ out-of-country divorce, you will need to submit various documents to the Government of Ontario evidencing that: **you are no longer married to your ex-spouse(s), **you now are eligible to get married or remarried legally in Canada **the divorce decree/ court order/ divorce certificate was properly obtained (as opposed to illegally obtained or obtained by fraud or coercion and duress etc.) and that such court divorce order appears to correspond to the requirements of the Divorce Act and therefore should be recognized as if it was legally obtained and valid in Canada. For more information visit https://www.ontario.ca/government/getting-married DOCUMENTS TO SUBMIT: Before an Ontario Marriage Licence is issued to you, you will need to submit the following documents to: Service Ontario Marriage Office PO Box 4600 189 Red River Road Thunder Bay, ON P7B 6L8 1. Marriage licence application: this document contains questions regarding personal information about yourself/applicant and your fiancé/joint applicant which will need to be executed by the applicants. 2. The Foreign Divorce Decree/ Court Order/ Divorce Certificate/ Annulment: an original or court-certified copy. If the decree or court order is in another language, you will need to include an English translated copy and an affidavit sworn by a certified translator. 3.

The following is a step-by-step instruction to completing the Statement of Sole Responsibility form and to clarify the confusing wordings within the form:

When the lawyer is satisfied with the information provided, the lawyer will draft and issue a legal opinion letter. The lawyer’s legal opinion letter will address both applicants who are planning to get in Ontario by applying the facts to Canadian law in order to arrive at legal reasons in support of the validity of the foreign divorce and that it should be recognized in Ontario. Upon being properly retained, you will be asked to provide the following document(s) and information to my office: 1. Your/Applicant information:
