Queens County Clerk's Office is one of the better county clerk I have encountered in my…read moreprofessional realm. In my adulthood I realized how imperative courts function to serve the public and I learn how to navigate the legal proceedings. Passports and other services are handled. My raison d'être is Commissioner of Deeds another re-appointment filing and payment, but in-person visit. The fee for filing the signature card is $10.00. I did not need an appointment for in-person re-appointment submission and payment. The Notary Department is located in room 106 next to the Cashier. Four stars, the clerk at the Notary Department window was inexperience who pawn to passed me to someone as an animated object who is more experienced to enter my blue signature card in the court system. I was instructed to go to the Cashier window for my filing fee payment followed by a subsequent instruction to return to the Notary Department window. What?? Why do I have to return to the Notary Department window again? I did received a minuscule sales receipt. Queens County Clerk's Office is a nice government building. It is ADA accessible by a ramp at the rear entrance through a parking lot on 88th Avenue at 148th Street between 89th Avenue. The steps are abundant, but I took my sweet time climbing high. Be prepared to enter through a metal detector for security (but not detailed like TSA airport style to remove shoes). The artwork for the greenish circle disc is somewhat appealing as it appeared very weathered with time and space from the elements. I highly admire the medium circle concrete stumps where each are inscribed locales names of Queens County: Ozone Park, Howard Beach, Richmond Hill, Cambria Heights, Sunnyside, Woodside, Astoria, Corona, Fresh Meadows, Long Island City, Briarwood, Ridgewood, Forest Hills, Rego Park, Woodhaven, Elmhurst, Bayside, Flushing, Hollis, Kew Gardens, Maspeth, Jamaica, The Rockaways. However, I think many other Queens locales or vicinities are missing: Hunters Point, Tudor Village, Glendale, Jackson Heights, College Point, Douglaston, Little Neck, Queensboro Hill, Jamaica Estates, Floral Park, Auburndale, Pomonok, Hillcrest, Glen Oaks, Whitestone, St. Albans, Laurelton, Queens Village, Rosedale, and Springfield Gardens, et al. These circular concrete stumps symbolism resonate Queens, New York City.

I needed some of the documents notarized which they do right there and there was no line. They also do passports and other documents as well.

We were in and out in fifteen minutes. There was no line. NO LINE. When one of the windows opened up, we stepped up talked to a nice young gentleman who swiftly took our information and payment, and handed us a marriage license in return. Not even a little muss, nor was their a hint of fuss. I suppose it's only fitting that it was this simple to get our marriage license...because after all, isn't that what they say about marriage? That it's really easy, and you don't have to work at it at all?

The woman who keys in the information on the computer had the attitude and personality of a python. She told me it would take 4 MONTHS and I should change the date on my stamp. I told her I usually get it in 4-6 weeks and 'fixing' the stamp is illegal. She offered silence..except for "Next, please". My commission expires July 14, 2022. I estimated the time which would be approximately the first week in June. Bingo! I was blessed. Received my new card, June 3. I plan to call there and share my card arrival by phone. It's about the satisfaction of proving people wrong when they think they're so right. Insecure people have a need to be controlling and intimating to the public. She'd make a good Meter Maid.
