Another question that keeps coming up, Can you back-date a mortgage?

Back-dating a loan signing is both unethical and illegal, as you would be knowingly notarizing a document that contains false information.

Furthermore, a document dated after the date of notarization risks rejection by a recorder, as it indicates it was notarized before it was signed.  This occurrence would cause delays in the document processing, and you could be held liable for any resulting legal damages.
