Correct Answer
A. The notary's name, the words "Notary Public State of New York," the county of original qualification, and the commission expiration date.
Detailed Explanation
Statement-as-to-authority wording is a tested formatting rule. Executive Law §137 requires the notary's name, title language, county of original qualification, and expiration date beneath the signature. For contrast, a county-filing statement is added only where applicable; it is not a list of every county in the state.
