Which of the following is NOT a notary action?

  1. Proof of Execution

  2. Jurat

  3. Sealing the document

  4. Acknowledgement

The correct answer is: Sealing the document

Notaries do not seal documents as part of their official duties. They may use a seal or stamp to mark a document as notarized, but this is not considered a notary action. The other options, Proof of Execution, Jurat, and Acknowledgement, are all types of notary actions that involve certifying signatures or verifying the authenticity of a document. Therefore, C is the incorrect option as it does not match the criteria of a notary action.
