C) Be an honorary notary public.

E) Be ineligible to notarize documents.

Answer 1

A notary public who neither resides nor works in the Commonwealth shall have no notarial authority.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, a notary public who neither resides nor works in the Commonwealth would be deemed to have no notarial authority (A).

Notary publics are individuals who have been authorized by the state to serve as impartial witnesses in the signing of important documents, such as contracts, deeds, and affidavits. However, their authority is typically limited to the jurisdiction in which they reside or work. If a notary public is not a resident or an employee in the Commonwealth, they would not possess the authority to perform notarial acts within that jurisdiction.

By not residing or working in the Commonwealth, they would not meet the requirements to be recognized as a notary public and would not be able to notarize documents.
