(d) If the surviving corporation  or  consolidated  corporation  is  a corporation  formed  under  the  religious  corporations  law, then, the certificate of merger or consolidation shall be filed with the office of the official in which the certificate of incorporation of the  surviving or consolidated corporation was filed, and the surviving or consolidated corporation shall thereafter cause a copy of such certificate, certified by  such  office,  to be filed in the office in which the certificate of incorporation of each constituent domestic  corporation  or  application for  authority  of  each  authorized  foreign corporation other than the surviving corporation was filed, and in the office of the  official  who is  the  recording  officer  of  each county in this state in which real property of a constituent  corporation,  other  than  the  surviving  or consolidated corporation, is located.

With  respect  to  the  surviving corporation, such merger may become effective on  such  date  subsequent thereto,  not  to  exceed  thirty  days,  as  shall be set forth in such certificate. The filing of  a  certified  copy  with  the  office  of  a recording  officer  of  a county in which real property is located shall not be a condition precedent to such merger  or  consolidation  becoming effective.
