What are the three types of satisfactory evidence?

The three types of satisfactory evidence are crucial for a notary to determine the identity of a signer. The correct answer includes:

• SVID (State-issued Identification Documentation), which refers to government-issued identification that establishes a person's identity.

• Credible Witness, which is an individual who personally knows the signer and can vouch for their identity. This witness must be credible, meaning they are not interested parties in the transaction and can be trusted to accurately affirm the identity of the signer.

• Personally Known, which means the notary is familiar with the individual and can confirm their identity based on prior encounters.

These methods provide notaries with reliable ways of verifying someone's identity, which is essential for preventing fraud and ensuring the integrity of the notarial process. Other options, like ID cards, passports, or documents like Social Security numbers, while they may provide information, do not encompass the broader methods of verifying identity that include both third-party affirmation (through a credible witness) and personal knowledge.
