Correct Answer

B. A veteran's application for a disability benefit under Government Code section 6107

Detailed Explanation

Mandatory free notarization for veterans' benefits. Government Code section 6107 provides that no fee shall be charged to a United States military veteran for notarization of an application or claim for a pension, allotment, allowance, compensation, insurance, or any other veteran's benefit. This is one of several mandatory zero-fee notarizations under California law, alongside nomination documents, circulator's affidavits, vote-by-mail materials, and pension-related documents for public entity employees.
