Why living in Nebraska doesn’t change the route
This document is issued by Internal Revenue Service, a federal authority. Federal documents are authenticated only by the U.S. Department of State in Washington, D.C. — the Nebraska Secretary of State in Lincoln has no authority over them, and a state apostille on a federal document will be rejected abroad.
So the process for Nebraska residents is the same as for anyone else in the country: get the document to us, we hand-deliver it in Washington, and it comes back ready to use.

What the Nebraska Secretary of State can do
The Nebraska Secretary of State in Lincoln issues apostilles for documents signed by Nebraska officials — birth, death and marriage certificates from Nebraska registrars, Nebraska state-court records, and documents notarized by Nebraska notaries. It has no authority over federal documents such as FBI reports, USCIS certificates or IRS letters.
State offices set their own procedures and fees, so confirm current requirements with the office before submitting a state document.
