Knowledge-Based Authentication (KBA) for Illinois RON typically requires the signer to correctly answer how many dynamic questions drawn from public records?
Answer: At least 4 out of 5 questions
Standard KBA protocols require the signer to correctly answer at least 4 of 5 questions within a set time limit to pass identity proofing.
If a signer fails the KBA identity proofing step during an Illinois RON session, what is the notary's correct course of action?
Answer: Offer to complete the notarization using an in-person appointment instead, without retrying RON that day
