If a notary's name does not appear on the seal, what action should they take?

Ignore it
Report to the police
Have their name printed near their signature
Resign

The correct answer is: Have their name printed near their signature

Notaries must have their name printed near their signature in order to properly and legally notarize documents. This is a necessary step to ensure that the document is properly identified and certified by the notary. Options A and D are incorrect because ignoring the issue or resigning would not solve the problem or fulfill the requirements for notarization. Reporting to the police (option B) is also unnecessary and not relevant to the situation. Thus, the best course of action for a notary whose name does not appear on the seal is to have their name printed near their signature.
