AI Summary

This bill proposes to extend the provision for virtual notarization, which was introduced to address challenges related to COVID-19, until July 31, 2022, or later if the emergency is still ongoing. The bill amends existing legislation (Chapter 71 of the Acts of 2020) to continue allowing for virtual notarization, which is the process of witnessing and verifying the authenticity of a document electronically, rather than in person, in order to address the difficulties and limitations posed by the COVID-19 pandemic.
