You can fill our and edit your USPS Form 1583 before submitting it to be notarized online! After you finish notarizing the form with our OneNotary partner, it is automatically uploaded to your account and approved by our system.


You'll have to:

  • Go to the "My Account" section in your account.
  • Click on the section titled "Account."
  • Find the section titled "You provided."
  • Click on the green pen icon next to "USPS Form 1583."
  • A pop-up window will appear, and you will need to confirm whether you have an American Social Security Number or not. If you're an international customer, the latter guarantees you are directed to the proper workflow by the system, so you'll have to choose "No, I don't."
  • You will then fill out the necessary information in the dedicated fields.
  • Click the "Generate document" button once you have made the necessary changes.
  • Another pop-up window will appear that allows you to review your document before finally proceeding to submit it. 
  • Click on the "Edit now" button to edit your document and make changes if needed.
  • Click on the "Notarize for [$]" to submit your document to the notary processor.
  • Click on "Continue" to be redirected to OneNotary to meet with a notary officer and finalize the process, or click "Cancel Notarization" to cancel it.


*Note: You can cancel the notary request at any time, before or after you submit the document for notarization, as long as you didn't complete the session with a notary officer. Reach out to your Operator and they'll cancel it for you.


**Note: Operators can fill out and generate the form before submitting it for notarizing on your behalf if needed. But you'll have to go through the notary session in person and meet with the notary officer to verify your identity and finalize the process.



General guidelines to guarantee a smoother process:

  1. If you're an international customer who does not have an American SSN, make sure you're choosing the "No, I don't" choice when asked about the SSN to ensure you are directed to the correct flow. 
  2. In order for the notary session to be completed successfully, only provide one of the allowed ID types; using anything other than the allowed types listed below will cause the transaction to be rejected by the notary officer.
  3. You need to closely review the form and ensure that all provided data is accurate before submitting the form to avoid having to generate and submit a new one.
  4. You need to ensure the ID forms you are using to verify your identity and address are valid, legible, unexpired, and with the information written in Latin alphabet (ABC..) and Arabic numerals (123..). Otherwise, the notary officer might not be able to verify the data on the 1583 if the IDs are written in a different language.
