I would be honored to notarize your Declaration of Domestic Partnership form for you.
I notarized the first one Friday, July 20, for a couple who had been together 7 years. Notarizing their signatures and hearing their oaths felt like I was taking part in their long-awaited celebration. They plan to drive to Olympia the first day registrations are accepted. They hope to be the first registered domestic partners in Whatcom County.

THE DOMESTIC PARTNER REGISTRATION PROCESS
Registration is easy. Complete the form, sign it and give your oath in front of a notary, then deliver or mail the form and fee to the office in Olympia.
Our Secretary of State has done a good job of explaining the process on a Frequently Asked Questions website: http://www.secstate.wa.gov/corps/dp_faq.aspx
The registration form just became available online July 18. You can fill out the form and print it. Don't sign it until a notary can watch you. The "signed and affirmed" wording in the area below your signature tells the notary to administer an oath to you. http://www.secstate.wa.gov/corps/domesticpartnerships/declaration%20draft%209.pdf
