Is This Form Right For You?

Use This Form If:

  • Individuals who have changed their name due to marriage or divorce may need to use this affidavit to confirm their identity across different legal documents. This ensures that all records reflect their current name while acknowledging their previous names.
  • Situations requiring proof of identity, such as applying for a loan or opening a bank account, often necessitate a name affidavit. This document can help clarify discrepancies in identification documents that may arise from using different names over time.
  • For those who have been known by multiple names throughout their life, such as stage names or aliases, this affidavit serves to legally affirm their identity. This is particularly useful in legal proceedings or when dealing with government agencies.
  • In cases where a person is adopting a child, a name affidavit may be required to establish the identity of the adoptive parent. This helps in ensuring that all legal identities are clear and recognized during the adoption process.
  • When dealing with estate matters, heirs may need to provide a name affidavit to prove their identity and relationship to the deceased. This can help facilitate the distribution of assets and ensure that all claims are valid.

Do Not Use If:
