An affidavit is a legal document which, in order to maintain integrity of our records and for accreditation purposes, we ask people to provide in the case where they have submitted documents with names, date of birth or other information that do not match.
An affidavit is a written statement which is sworn to be true. In order to be admissible, affidavits must be notarized by a notary public. The notary public is there to ensure the validity of the signature — once the affiant acknowledges signing the document for its intended purpose and signs the affidavit, the document is notarized and becomes a sworn affidavit.
To obtain an affidavit, we recommend doing one of the below:
Contacting a local law firm
Contacting a local court
You can also find other options by searching via Google ‘affidavit LOCATION’ where LOCATION = your country/city
