Upon receiving a non-honored check for notary services, how soon is the cancellation notice effective if no correction is made?

  1. Immediately upon the second notice

  2. 5 days after the second notice

  3. 20 days after the second notice

  4. 30 days after the second notice

The correct answer is: 20 days after the second notice

Upon receiving a non-honored check for notary services, the cancellation notice is effective 20 days after the second notice if no correction is made. This is because the notary must give the person who wrote the check a second notice, and then wait 20 days before the cancellation takes effect. Option A is incorrect because the cancellation does not take effect immediately after the second notice. Option B is incorrect because the cancellation does not take effect 5 days after the second notice. Option D is incorrect because the cancellation does not take effect 30 days after the second notice. It is important to note that these timelines may vary depending on state laws and notary regulations.
