An affidavit is a written statement used primarily in court proceedings or for judicial matters. It is “sworn” (using a religious text) or “affirmed” (a secular equivalent) before the notary. Because an affidavit is essentially written testimony, the notary’s role is to ensure the deponent understands the gravity of the document and to verify their identity. The notary then completes the jurat, the section at the bottom stating when, where, and before whom the oath was taken.
