Does Massachusetts accept it?
Massachusetts recognizes acknowledgments taken before a notary in any US state (G.L. c.183 §30). (source) New Jersey law treats an online notarization by a New Jersey notary as performed in New Jersey, wherever the signer is. (N.J.S.A. 52:7-10.10)
Massachusetts has enacted remote notarization for its own notaries, but the Secretary of the Commonwealth says it is not open yet.
Real estate: the exception
Real estate in Massachusetts involves a closing attorney, and registry acceptance of remotely notarized documents has been uncertain. Ask the attorney and the Registry of Deeds first. Other documents are generally accepted.
Commonly notarized online from Massachusetts
Affidavits, powers of attorney for non-real-estate matters, and business documents. Wills and some court filings have their own rules; ask before you book.
