I called the Secretary of State
Posted by JustANotary of CA on 3/29/22 7:15pm	Msg #639148

I called the Secretary of State notary hotline and they said since the notary handbook does not deal with the idea of an AKA, they recommended having the lender issue a letter of opinion from a California attorney showing the legal code they find showing a provision for putting two variations of one name on the acknowledgement. They said to tell the lender that without such a letter I was at risk for being fined $10,000.
