What happens to a Notary's commission if they change their employment status?

A Notary's commission is independent of their employment status. When a Notary changes jobs or employment, their commission remains valid and in effect until its natural expiration, unless there is a specific action taken to cancel it, such as failing to renew or being otherwise disqualified. This means that the commission continues to authorize the individual to perform notarizations even if they are no longer affiliated with their previous employer.

The process for maintaining a Notary's commission is separate from their employment, which is foundational to the understanding of a Notary's role and responsibilities. This makes option describing an immediate cancellation of the commission due to employment changes incorrect, as the commission does not automatically terminate in such scenarios.

Thus, the correct understanding is that the Notary's commission remains valid despite any changes in their employment status, which highlights the distinction between professional licensure and individual job circumstances.
