Your jurisdiction as a CA Notary Public will be

  1. the county where you reside

  2. the entire state of CA

  3. Only the city where you work

  4. Specifically designated areas

The correct answer is: the entire state of CA

As a CA Notary Public, your jurisdiction refers to the area where you are authorized to notarize documents. In this case, it would be the entire state of CA. This means that you are able to notarize documents anywhere within the state, not just within the county where you reside or the city where you work. Therefore, options A and C are incorrect. Option D is also incorrect because although there may be certain areas within the state that you are specifically designated to notarize in (such as a designated office or location), your overall jurisdiction still encompasses the entire state of CA.
