Tax Forms and Other Government Documents
Voter registration forms are available at the library, and from January through April both federal and state tax forms are available.
You can also access many of these forms online:
Connecticut voter registration forms
Federal tax forms
State of Connecticut tax forms
We also have Personal Forms on File, a set of more than 100 reproducible forms covering areas such as college application, financial aid, personal property, health benefits, veterans' benefits, real estate, and personal legal needs. This book can be found in our reference section.
Notary Service
The Canton Public Library has notaries on staff. Our notaries are pleased to provide this service to library visitors free of charge. Please call ahead to verify that a notary is on duty at the time you plan to come.
The following are the rules that our notaries follow:
- The requestor must provide the notary with a valid form of photo identification, such as a driver’s license or a passport. Notaries are not allowed to sign documents unless they are certain that the requestor is who he or she claims to be.
- The requestor must sign the document(s) to be notarized in front of the notary, not in advance.
- A document to be notarized must consist of a legal form. It cannot be a handwritten or typed piece of paper.
- Notaries will maintain journals wherein each transaction will be recorded, as per state law.
- If the state referred to in the legal notary form is other than Connecticut, the notary will cross out the state cited and replace it with the words “State of Connecticut ”. Library notaries hold credentials only in Connecticut .
- Information to be notarized must appear printed on the document pages. The notary will not notarize blank pages or pages not related to the body of the document.
