This document is certified by the ______.

• A. Tax Collector
• B. Clerk
• C. Treasurer
• D. Attorney

Answer: (A)

In tax administration, the person who certifies official tax documents is the office that handles taxes, keeps the tax rolls, and enforces collection. The Tax Collector has the authority to certify tax-related documents such as tax bills, receipts, liens, and related certifications because this office directly administers and verifies tax obligations. Certification by the Tax Collector signals that the information is official, accurate, and authorized by the agency responsible for enforcing tax collection.

The other offices have different primary roles. A Clerk typically handles record-keeping and may certify copies of records, but not specifically certify tax documents as part of tax collection. A Treasurer manages public funds and financial disbursements rather than certifying tax-specific paperwork. An Attorney provides legal advice and representation, not the formal certification of tax documents.
