Do I have to sign an affidavit in front of a notary?

Almost always, yes — that's what makes it an affidavit rather than just a written statement. Don't sign it in advance: bring the unsigned, filled affidavit to a notary public (banks, libraries, shipping stores, and many offices have one) and sign it in front of them. They complete the acknowledgment block and add their seal. A few jurisdictions accept an unsworn declaration under penalty of perjury instead — check what the requesting party will accept.

Is this affidavit valid in my state?

It's a general starter template, not legal advice — notarization rules and any required wording are state-specific, and some courts or agencies have their own affidavit form you must use. Treat this as a starting point: verify your state's requirements (or use the form the requesting party gave you) and consult a lawyer for anything high-stakes. Every field is editable.

What goes in the statement of facts?

Plain, first-person, factual statements you know to be true — one fact per line, in the wide fields provided. Stick to facts you have personal knowledge of; avoid opinions or guesses, since you're swearing the statement is true under penalty of perjury.

An affidavit is a written statement of facts you swear to be true, signed in front of a notary. Courts, banks, schools, and agencies ask for them constantly — to confirm an address, a name change, residency, identity, or that a document was lost. AttachKit fills your details and the statement, so you walk into the notary with everything ready to sign.

Who needs it: Anyone asked to provide a sworn statement — for a court filing, a name or address confirmation, a lost-document declaration, an identity or relationship affidavit, or a bank/agency request.
