State of Michigan - Office of the Great Seal

I sent my documents back in March 2022 it is now March 2023 and I have still not received my commission certificate. I paid and did everything required through the county and sent over my documentation a year ago. My paperwork was processed showing my status active but I have no documentation at all which is holding me up from receiving my notary stamp. This office is terrible I have called many times leaving many voicemails with no returned call. Im not sure what to do!!

Our first appointment 12/5/22 was reasonable, had a little bit of a wait but the security guard and gentlemen who helped us was perfunctory. We were missing some things and I wish we had been given better instructions on what we needed to complete the process for some documents (we had many to apostille). He suggested we mail in the remaining documents but the reviews here didn't give me the warmest feelings about that. 3 stars. So repeat visit 12/12/22! The same security guard (Lou) was there and he remembered me and was just as kind and helpful as last time! We worked with a different person today Ms. Jessica and she was AMAZING. We still didn't quite have what we needed so she gave us clear instructions and forms and directed us to the appropriate place with directions and even called ahead with Lou's help to complete our appointment and documents. I'm stunned and grateful for her kindness and thoroughness. 5 stars! Thank you very much!

Totally at a loss here, I applied to become a notary in June and still have not heard anything back and like the other review say there no way to actually contact the office to receive a response. I don't know if they received my applications, if there are problems, or if I am being denied...... If anyone figures out how to get a response from this office please post here.

I work with all state governments in the USA and Michigan is, without a doubt, far and away, the most incompetent, unresponsive, unorganized state I have had the displeasure of dealing with.
