Final answer:
A person who lives in a surrounding state but works in Missouri can indeed become a non-resident Missouri notary, provided they meet specific qualifications and requirements.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question asks whether a person who works in Missouri, but lives in a surrounding state, can be appointed as a non-resident Missouri notary. The answer to this is true. Missouri law does allow for individuals who live in a surrounding state to become non-resident notaries as long as they work in Missouri and meet the other qualifications and requirements set by the Missouri Secretary of State's office.
