May a notary take an acknowledgement of a relative?

Yes, if the notary has no interest in the transaction
No, under no circumstances
Yes, but only if related by marriage
Yes, but only for financial transactions

The correct answer is: Yes, if the notary has no interest in the transaction

A notary may take an acknowledgement of a relative as long as the notary has no interest in the transaction. This means that the notary cannot benefit financially or legally from the transaction. Option B is incorrect because there are certain circumstances where a notary can take an acknowledgement of a relative. Option C is incorrect because a notary can be related to the signer by blood, adoption, or marriage. Option D is incorrect because a notary can take an acknowledgement of a relative for any type of transaction, not just financial ones.
