did yours come back signed?
but then as you say being on the safe side
Anybody know what is really meant by the term 'notarised' when used in Philippines??

As opposed to certified.

Here in UK a Notary will validate a signature.
Having a document certified means having an 'appropriate person' confirm that a copy is a true and exact copy of a specified original (or other copy)

A Notary is darn expensive in UK.
