Typically, notarization can be done remotely if you're in a situation like military deployment. Since you're active duty, you may be eligible to use a military notary or a service that can notarize documents remotely through video conferencing. The Department of Defense (DoD) allows military personnel to use remote online notarization (RON) in certain circumstances, especially if you're deployed.
You may want to check if there is a legal assistance office on your base or reach out to a military notary public who can help with the notarization remotely (10 U.S.C. § 1044a(b)). Another option is to use a civilian notary who is familiar with military deployment situations, especially if you're in a location with access to civilian notaries who understand how to handle such requests for military personnel.
Make sure that the form is signed in front of the notary, and that all required sections are filled out completely to avoid any delays. If you’re unable to find a notary, you could also contact the personnel office on your base for further assistance or clarification.
