Question 37
Domain 5: Title 19 NYCRR, Part A New York notary public's current commission is nearing its end. Within what time period may the notary file a reappointment application?
Reappointment may be filed within 90 days of expiration, not 30 days.
Because the question asks for the permitted filing period for reappointment, this matches the stated 90-day window exactly.
The applicable period in the source is 90 days from expiration, not 6 months.
A reappointment application may be filed within 90 days before the commission expires.
Explanation
Whenever a New York notary seeks reappointment, the filing window is within 90 days of the commission's expiration.
Memory Aid Think: 'Re-up by 90' — reappointment is tied to a 90-day expiration window.
