, Question 1
An Illinois notary is asked to notarize a document for a signer who speaks only
Mandarin and does not understand English. A bilingual friend offers to
translate. Under the Illinois Notary Public Act, which course of action is
permissible?
A. The notary may proceed if the translator signs a written declaration of
accuracy and the notary notes the translator's name in the journal.
B. The notary may proceed only if the translator is a certified court
interpreter.
C. The notary must refuse because the notary cannot communicate
directly with the signer.
D. The notary may proceed if the notary understands Mandarin well
enough to verify the signer's identity and willingness.
Correct Answer: A - The notary may proceed if the translator
signs a written declaration of accuracy and the notary notes the
translator's name in the journal.
RATIONALE
The Act permits notarization through a translator provided the
translator is identified and the notary records the translator's name and
the method of communication in the journal. Option B is incorrect
because Illinois does not require court certification for translators.
Option C is too restrictive; the Act allows a translator. Option D is
wrong because the notary's personal language ability is not the
statutory criterion.
Question 2
Which statement accurately describes the venue and record-keeping
requirements for an Illinois notary performing a remote online notarization
(RON) for a signer located in another state?
A. The notary must be physically located in Illinois, and the notary must
record the notarial act in the official journal.
