Need an Affidavit of Identity for a government agency, financial institution, employer, school, immigration matter, or another organization? Royal Seal Notary Public provides affidavit commissioning services in Oshawa.

An Affidavit of Identity is a sworn statement used to formally confirm identity-related information or explain differences between names, records, or documents. In Ontario, a Notary Public may exercise the powers of a Commissioner for Taking Affidavits, including administering an oath or affirmation for an affidavit.

Common situations may include:

• Differences between names appearing on documents
• Confirming that different names refer to the same person
• Explaining identity-related information requested by an organization
• Government or administrative applications
• Financial or institutional requirements
• Other situations where a sworn statement about identity is specifically requested

What to bring:

• The Affidavit of Identity or form, if one was provided
• Valid government-issued identification
• Supporting documents related to your identity or name
• Any instructions, email, or checklist from the organization requesting the affidavit

Important:

• Do not sign the affidavit before your appointment if your signature must be witnessed.
• You will swear or affirm that the information in the affidavit is true and sign it in the presence of the Commissioner or Notary Public.
• You are responsible for the information contained in your affidavit.
• An Affidavit of Identity does not automatically replace government-issued identification.
• If you do not have acceptable identification, contact us before booking so we can confirm whether the requested service can be completed.
• The organization receiving the affidavit determines whether it will accept the document for its intended purpose.

If you have been asked for an Affidavit of Identity and are unsure what information or supporting documents are required, bring the instructions you received. We can help you understand the commissioning service being requested without guaranteeing acceptance by the receiving organization.
