Overview

What is Affidavit & Legal Documentation?

An affidavit is a written statement you swear to be true, used as evidence of a fact — your name, address, date of birth, income, or a gap in your education or employment. To be accepted it is drafted for its purpose, executed on stamp paper of the value your state requires, signed, and attested by a notary, oath commissioner or magistrate.

Who it's for

Who needs it

Students and graduates

Eligibility & requirements

Made by the person stating the facts, who must understand what they are signing
Stamp duty as set by your state's Stamp Act, on stamp paper or e-stamp
Attested by a notary, oath commissioner or magistrate
Every statement true to your knowledge — a false affidavit is an offence

Why is it needed?

Schools, universities, banks, passport offices and government departments regularly ask for an affidavit to confirm something no other document shows. A poorly worded or wrongly stamped affidavit is simply rejected, and a false one has legal consequences — so it pays to have it drafted properly.
