What can no fees be charged for by a notary public?

  1. Verifying a nomination document or circulator's affidavit

  2. Notarizing personal documents

  3. Real estate transactions

  4. Filing legal documents

The correct answer is: Verifying a nomination document or circulator's affidavit

A notary public is an official appointed by the government to witness and certify the signing of important documents. Fees may be charged by a notary for their services; however, there are specific situations where no fees can be charged. This includes verifying a nomination document or circulator's affidavit. This option is correct because a notary public is not allowed to charge a fee for this specific service. Verifying personal documents, such as identity documents, may require a fee as it is not specific to the role of a notary. Real estate transactions and filing legal documents also typically require a fee as they involve a significant amount of work and responsibility for the notary. Therefore, these options are incorrect as fees can be charged for them. The key to answering this question is to understand the role and responsibilities of a notary public, and which specific services they may not charge a fee for.
