In New Jersey, a notary public is not a lawyer. A notary cannot give you immigration legal advice.
If someone who is not a lawyer or an accredited representative charged you for legal advice, you can report it to the state.

We do not give legal advice and we do not decide your case. We tell you where to look for a licensed attorney or an accredited representative.
