Correct Answer

D. Change of name or address midterm — $3

Detailed Explanation

The midterm change fee is not the same as the authentication fee. Executive Law §§131-133 and the booklet's "Schedule of Fees" show $1 for issuance of a certificate of official character, $1 for filing one, $3 for an authentication certificate, and $10 for a change of name or address. Not to be confused with the $10 duplicate identification-card fee, which is separate but equal in amount.
