What is a subscribing witness placed under oath and asked?

  1. Their name and birthday

  2. If they received payment for witnessing

  3. Did you sign as a witness and did the signer acknowledge their signing?

  4. The document's purpose

The correct answer is: Did you sign as a witness and did the signer acknowledge their signing?

A subscribing witness is not asked for their name and birthday, as that information is typically already known to the signer. They may be asked if they received payment for witnessing, but this is not the main purpose of placing them under oath. The document's purpose is also not always relevant to the subscribing witness, as they are simply there to witness the signing. Therefore, the correct answer is C, as they are asked if they signed as a witness and if the signer acknowledged their signing. This is to ensure that the subscribing witness is testifying to the validity of the document's signing and acknowledging their role in the process.
