Which statement about communication technology is legally accurate?

A

It may rely on prerecorded video so long as the notary later calls the signer.

B

It must allow the notary and the remotely located individual to communicate simultaneously by sight and sound.

C

It may omit any method for assisting a signer with hearing or speech impairment.

D

It permits the notary to act without recording if the signer is personally known.

Correct Answer

B. It must allow the notary and the remotely located individual to communicate simultaneously by sight and sound.

AI Explanation

Live sight-and-sound interaction is part of the statutory definition itself. Executive Law §135-c(1)(a)(i) defines communication technology as a device or process allowing the notary and the remotely located individual to communicate simultaneously by sight and sound. Unlike a prerecorded exchange, the act must occur in real time.
