Hi. I just realised that one of our declaration letter from our family doesn't have a stamp on it. My mum signed it in front of her and the solicitor signed it as well but didn't put the stamp on it. Is that okay, or will it be a problem?

No I'm sure. My one letter has the raised stamp but I know this one doesn't. She said that not having the stamp wouldn't be problem because she still signed and dated it
Im really worried about this now. We were going to send this all away tomorrow but I'm nervous CIC won't accept it. We trusted that she would do it correctly and comfirmed us that it didn't need a stamp. Thank you for your help, just worried now
It’s the Notary Public’s role to verify the identity of the person signing the document. The Notary will also confirm the signatory understands the meaning of what she or he is signing.
What are the steps to notarization?
* You must present valid identification (a valid piece of government issued photo ID with another piece) to your Notary.
* Your Notary will then ensure you understand and can attest to what you’re about to sign.
* The Notary Public then witnesses your signature.
* Once you have signed the document, the Notary will affix her or his stamp (or “seal”) to the document. The document is now notarized.
* Having a document notarized is the same as swearing under oath in a court of law—you are saying that the facts contained in the document are true.
Thank you. I really appreciate your help. I'll talk to her as soon as I can about this. I found this on our official uk gov. Website
Get a document legalised
You get a UK public document ‘legalised’ by asking the UK government to confirm that a UK public official’s signature, seal or stamp on the document is genuine.
I'm not sure if that means a signature is enough.
