Correct Answer
B. If the application is filed within 1 year after a discharge other than bad conduct or dishonorable, as specified in Executive Law §130.
AI Explanation
Military-service waiver rules extend beyond the normal six-month period. Executive Law §130 allows waiver of the qualifying requirements if the former notary failed to reapply because of U.S. armed-forces service and reapplies within 1 year after the qualifying discharge described in the statute. In contrast, the ordinary late-reappointment waiver for former notaries is tied to the six-month post-expiration window.
