"Acknowledged" means I heard you & understood what you said & I take responsibility for the information you just gave me. "Affirm" and its opposite, "negative," are answers to a yes/no question.

An acknowledgment states that you have "acknowledged" (told the notary that the signature at the end of the document was your signature). A jurat at the end of an affidavit states that you have "signed and sworn to" (signed the document and told the notary that the statements in the document were true).

If any required element is missing, the notarization cannot continue. It's of paramount importance that you tell the document signer firmly, clearly and tactfully anytime you must stop a notarial act because of a missing required element.

An acknowledgment is the act of one who has executed a deed in going before some competent officer or court and declaring it to be his act or deed; while a jurat is that part of an affidavit where the officer certifies that the same was sworn before him.

A notary acknowledgement ensures that the signer of the document is indeed the person named in the document. The function of the notary in this case is to verify the identity of the signer. On the other hand, a notary is asked to perform a Jurat, when the signer takes an oath or makes an affirmation.
