What is a Identity Affidavit?
An identity affidavit is a document in which you swear to your identity under penalty of perjury. It may be used when you cannot provide standard ID or when an institution requires additional verification.
When do you need one?
Banks, government agencies, or other institutions may request an identity affidavit when you lack standard ID or need to resolve identity discrepancies.
Does it need to be notarized?
Yes. Identity affidavits typically require notarization to be accepted by banks and institutions.
Can you notarize a Identity Affidavit online in your state?
Yes — in every state. 45 states have enacted their own remote online notarization (RON) laws, and residents of the remaining states can legally notarize online with a commissioned notary in a RON-authorized state; the notarization is valid nationwide under interstate recognition rules. Select your state for its specific requirements.
