Use a I Affirm That I Am Not A Person Who, Or The Person Whose Name I Seek To Change Is Not A Person Who template to make your document workflow more streamlined.
What this affirmation form establishes
This form is a written affirmation that the filer, or the person whose name is sought to be changed, is not a person described by the prohibited condition identified in the form. It is generally used as supporting evidence in a name-change matter, but the exact agency, court, wording, and filing requirements depend on the jurisdiction and case. Complete each statement truthfully, identify the relevant person accurately, sign with intent, and retain the completed record. ESIGN and UETA may recognize an electronic signature for eligible transactions, but they do not replace state-specific filing, notarization, or court requirements.
