The Statements Made In The Petition Remain True And Accurate Except Form
Use a The Statements Made In The Petition Remain True And Accurate Except template to make your document workflow more streamlined.
What this petition statement form does
This form records that statements made in a petition remain true and accurate except where the form identifies an exception. It is used to present a signer’s confirmation in a structured record, but the title alone does not identify the court, agency, proceeding, filing deadline, or required attachments. In signNow, upload the petition form, detect or place its fields, assign the signer, and send it for review and signature. The completed document and audit trail preserve the signing event. Confirm filing rules with the responsible U.S. authority before relying on an electronic copy.
Who uses this petition statement
Petition filers
Petitioners and authorized representatives use the form to confirm that factual statements submitted in a specific proceeding remain true and accurate, except for expressly identified qualifications. They should verify the proceeding, recipient, signature authority, and attachments before sending the document through signNow.
Review teams
Legal, compliance, and administrative teams use signNow to route the statement to the correct signer, preserve the completed petition with its audit trail, and manage access to sensitive case information. The receiving authority’s rules determine whether electronic delivery or an additional filing method is acceptable.
Features for this petition statement
Prepare the exact petition statement, capture an attributable signature, and preserve a reviewable record without changing the form’s legal wording.
Field preparation
Upload the petition document, then use signNow’s field detection or place signature, date, and acknowledgment fields manually. This keeps the statement’s exception language visible while preparing a consistent signing package.
Signer control
Assign the authorized signer directly and use signer authentication appropriate to the petition’s sensitivity. Email delivery, SMS one-time passcodes, or stronger controls can help connect the completed statement to its signer.
Consent capture
Capture intent through a clear signature action and electronic-record consent when required. The completed petition can retain the signer’s action, timestamp, and related event history for later review.
Audit trail
The audit trail records document activity surrounding the petition, including signer actions and timestamps. Preserve it with the completed document when the receiving court, agency, or business requires evidence of execution.
Reusable template
Use reusable templates only after confirming that the petition’s exception wording, signature placement, and attachments remain accurate. Templates reduce repeated setup without changing the underlying legal requirements.
Mobile signing
signNow supports desktop and mobile signing, allowing an authorized petitioner to review and sign without exchanging paper copies. The recipient still controls whether electronic delivery satisfies the applicable filing rule.

Privacy and disclosure pitfalls
Including unnecessary addresses, identification numbers, or case details can expose personal information in the completed petition record. A signer may complete the statement without receiving the electronic-record disclosure or understanding the consequences of confirming accuracy. Sending the petition from a shared account can weaken attribution when the sender and authorized signer are different people. Leaving exception language, signature dates, or required attachments incomplete can create a record that does not match the filed petition.
State and document exclusions
Notarization rule
Wills and codicils
Court filing
Real-estate deed
Legal standing and evidentiary value
An electronic petition statement can support a U.S. business record when the signer demonstrates intent, consents to electronic records, can be identified, and the record remains reproducible. ESIGN and UETA generally provide legal equivalence, but wills, court orders, official court filings, and family-law decrees are excluded; verify the governing authority.

Troubleshooting the petition form
Resolve field, authentication, consent, and filing questions before sending this petition statement for electronic signature.
Upload the exact petition form as a PDF or document, then use signNow field detection or place signature, date, and acknowledgment fields manually. The Business plan includes templates and audit trails, while ESIGN and UETA recognize electronic signatures when intent, consent, attribution, and record retention requirements are satisfied.
The form name identifies a petition statement, but it does not establish a universal filing deadline. Confirm the deadline, recipient, and signature requirements with the court, agency, or governing state rule before sending. signNow can document completion but does not determine legal filing requirements.
Use signNow’s audit trail to preserve signer identity, timestamps, actions, and the completed document. For consumer-facing records, obtain electronic-record consent and provide paper-access information under ESIGN, 15 U.S.C. §7001(c), when that statute applies.
The Business plan provides legally binding eSignatures, templates, mobile apps, and audit trails at $8 per user monthly when billed annually. Subscription plans include 100 signature invites per user annually; overage fees may apply, so review usage before sending petitions in volume.
Use SMS one-time passcodes or stronger signer authentication when the petition contains sensitive personal information or the recipient’s identity needs additional evidence. Business Premium adds bulk send and kiosk mode, while Enterprise adds advanced signer authentication.
Electronic signing does not replace notarization, court filing, or an agency’s required submission method. ESIGN and UETA generally support electronic records, but wills, court orders, official court filings, and family-law decrees remain statutory exceptions requiring separate legal review.
