If your application for an electronic notary public commission is incomplete, what will the Secretary of State do?

When an application for an electronic notary public commission is found to be incomplete, the Secretary of State will store the application for one year before taking the next steps to deny it. This practice allows the applicant a reasonable amount of time to rectify any deficiencies in their application. It reflects a process that is accommodating and provides an opportunity for the applicant to ensure that all required information and documentation are furnished, thereby promoting thoroughness and compliance with necessary regulations. This period also serves to maintain proper records while ensuring that applicants are given a fair chance to complete their submissions.
