Q.
Does the Certifying Officer need to physically sign the IACRA Temporary Certificate? The Temporary Certificate already shows e-signed by the Certifying Officer.
A.
No, the Certifying Officer should not physically sign the IACRA Temporary Certificate, Notice of Disapproval or Letter of Discontinuance before giving these documents to the applicant. AFS-800 has deemed the e-signature to be sufficient for the purposes of issuing these documents to the applicant.
