Cash is not accepted for the examination fee.
A returned check triggers an additional $20 fee.
The examination fee is nonrefundable.
A returned check only causes a warning and no additional charge.
Correct Answer
D. A returned check only causes a warning and no additional charge.
AI Explanation
The exam notice is explicit on both payment method and returned-check consequence. The 2026 examination schedule says cash will not be accepted, the $15 exam fee is nonrefundable, and a $20 fee will be charged for any returned check. In practice, this is an exam-procedure trap, not a notarial-fee question under Executive Law §136.
