Dear Sgt and Jingjai,
Thank you for your help -- however, I'm pretty sure that I need a U.S.-style notary public. Here's why.
1) I'm dealing with Canadian immigration, not a U.S. private entity. They want U.S.-style notarization, and in my experience it's best to give the immigration folks what they want. A Thai garuda isn't going to cut it.
2) I'm trying to avoid the U.S. embassy -- we have to copy three passports, one visa, one marriage certificate, possibly one marriage certificate translation. That's 130 bucks, for something that would cost $12 dollars in the States. It bugs me . . . All I need is a few more things and it would make sense to fly back to the states and do it there . . .
3) So yes, Jingjai, if you know anyone who does this for a normal price, tell me. But unless it's cheaper than 700 Baht, there's no point . . .
Thanks for your help, guys.
