I don't think notarization is necessary for that.

If you want to get something notarized while out of the country make an appointment at a US Embassy or Consulate.

We just received an RFE request for proof of US citizenship and all they are asking for is a copy of his passport (or birthcertificate or a choice of 5 other items). No notarization was requested. Hope that helps. :luv:

Just in case you wonder, if a Consular Officer or Immigration Officer enters your passport number into the federal data base, all they ever wanted to know about you will pop up. No color needed.

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.

President Teddy Roosevelt on Columbus Day 1915
