Question: 1 / 400

Which of the following is not a step in an acknowledgement?

The signer must acknowledge to the Notary that the signature is his/her own

The Notary must sign the document before the signer

An acknowledgement is the process of a signer declaring to a Notary that they are signing a document willingly and with full understanding, and that the signature is authentic. Steps in an acknowledgement include the signer acknowledging to the Notary that the signature is their own (A), the Notary certifying that they witnessed the acknowledgement (C), and the Notary verifying the identity of the signer (D). However, the Notary does not need to sign the document before the signer, making option B incorrect. The Notary must also notarize the acknowledgement by affixing their seal and signature to the document.
