Virtual Commissioning Now Available at the NCA
VIRTUAL COMMISSIONING

As of April 3, 2020 the NCA will provide virtual commissioning of statutory declarations to NCA members, via "video conferencing" and email.

Our partnership with Link2Build has resulted with consultation with the Law Society of Ontario on this issue, and we are confident in their determination of this service.
The Law Society's details on this can be found HERE (VIRTUAL COMMISSIONING) and HERE (VIRTUAL COMMISSIONING DURING COVID-19); we encourage members to familiarize themselves with this information.

The process essentially entails:

  • Member emails Natalie or Karin when they are ready to have a stat dec commissioned; staff will email Member instructions to set up the video conference

  • Member has photo identification, seal, and the UNSIGNED stat dec ready

  • Staff will witness the signing, and the Member will scan and send by email to Staff

  • Staff will verify, sign and date the stat dec, and scan and email it back to the Member

  • If you don't have a printer/scanner/copier option, this can be accomplished via your cell phone
