S.S. on the Notarial Certificate: What Does It Mean?
ASN Hot Tip, May 2009-#2
Many documents, especially those generated by banks and similar institutions, display the symbol “S.S.” adjacent to the blanks for venue information (State of __________, County of __________). An astonishing number of notaries either don’t know the meaning of the “S.S.” symbol, or erroneously believe it is a request for a Social Security Number!

In fact, “S.S.” is the abbreviation for “scilicet” – a Latin term meaning “namely” or “in particular.” It is the predecessor of today’s familiar, and required, venue element. The pronunciation is (forgive our Latin!!) “SILL-le-cet.”

Note from asker:
Gracias, Taña. La verdad, me hallé en un aprieto, pero lo resolví viendo quién lo había puesto primero, o el que apareció primero.
Peer comment(s):

neutral Diana Falcón : Sí, Taña, significa "a saber", como ya había explicado yo. Gracias por confirmarlo. If you have a look at the time, we did it at the same time. But that's ok.

I actually posted in the discussion box before you posted your answer (which was not there!); furthermore, I included other references. But thanks anyway.
