Which identification method is NOT accepted for notarization?

  1. U.S. Immigration ID card

  2. Inmate identification card (after Jan 1, 1991)

  3. Library card

  4. Foreign passport stamped by U.S. Immigration

The correct answer is: Library card

The identification method that is not accepted for notarization is a library card. In the context of notarization, acceptable forms of identification must be government-issued and include a photo, along with a signature, to ensure the identity of the signer can be reliably verified. Government-issued IDs like U.S. Immigration ID cards, inmate identification (post-Jan 1, 1991), and foreign passports stamped by U.S. Immigration fit this criterion, as they are official documents that provide sufficient identification details. A library card, however, does not qualify because it is typically issued by a private institution and lacks the necessary security features and government endorsement required for lawful notarization practices. This makes it insufficient for establishing a person's identity in formal legal transactions.
