Correct Answer

B. Notify within 5 days, signed with the designated electronic signature.

Detailed Explanation

Electronic-notary updates have a short deadline and a signature requirement. Executive Law §135-c(7) and 19 NYCRR §182.3(a)(8) require notice of an email-address change within five days, and 19 NYCRR §182.4(a)(10) requires the notice to be signed with the notary’s designated electronic signature. Unlike a county-clerk filing, this is a secretary-of-state update rule.
