What must a written request for a photocopy of a journal entry contain?

  1. Reason for request

  2. Signer's social security number

  3. Type of document, month and year of notarization, and names of parties

  4. Notary's personal contact information

The correct answer is: Type of document, month and year of notarization, and names of parties

A written request for a photocopy of a journal entry must contain the type of document, the month and year of notarization, and the names of the parties to the document. This information is necessary to identify the specific journal entry and ensure that the correct document is being requested. Other options such as the reason for the request or the signer's social security number are not relevant and should not be included in the request. Additionally, providing the notary's personal contact information is not necessary and may compromise the notary's privacy.
