Well, I know there are States I WOULDN'T mirror when making the Standard determination; but that doesn't mean they can't be a valuable information source. Just depends on what we're really talking about here. Admin, as in nuts & bolts or . . . ?
Might it be helpful to organize a Workgroup in your State (see my pm) as other States -including on here- have done?
Collaborators mean success.

From what we've seen so far, among the biggest standardization challenges are defining "personal appearance."
Some States are combining RIN/RON or instituting other emergency procedures, while others are far less accommodating.
Even WHERE a commissioned notary may practice is under debate now (as see from the NY/FL) depending on the document's originating State).*

You've got your work cut out for you; and that engineering training may come in handy!
I'd volunteer as a Research Assistant and Writer, but don't want to over-extend Wink


From above source (good or bad model?):
The Vermont Secretary of State issued an emergency administrative rules permitting signers and Notaries to satisfy the personal appearance requirement via a secure communication link. However, the emergency rules only apply to paper documents and “do not permit electronic notarization or remote online notarization of electronic documents.”

In order to perform a notarization in this manner:

The signer must be in Vermont.
The Notary must verify the signer’s identity either through personal knowledge, a credible witness or 2 different types if identification presented by the signer.
The notarization must be “performed on a tangible (paper) record” either sent to the Notary in its original paper form or transmitted electronically and printed out by the Notary.
The notarial certificate must be hand-written, imprinted by a stamp or embosser, or both on the document.
The Notary — or a person acting on their behalf — a must create an audio-visual recording of the notarization and retain it for at least 7 years.

*We're At large in VA, referring to docs to be used anywhere in the Commonwealth or Federal Govt issuances; but my territory frequently takes me to border locations, i.e., cities around the Potomac. Wish we could operate as One. Lots of government workers here in the capitol.
