The most frequently completed form by notaries is:

  1. The power of attorney

  2. The affidavit

  3. The acknowledgement

  4. The deed of trust

The correct answer is: The acknowledgement

The acknowledgement is the most frequently completed form by notaries because it is a legal requirement in many jurisdictions for certain types of documents to be notarized, such as deeds, contracts, and legal agreements. The power of attorney and deed of trust are also commonly notarized, but not as frequently as acknowledgements. The affidavit can also be notarized, but it is not necessary for this document to be notarized in most situations. Therefore, the acknowledgement is the most commonly completed form by notaries.
