• What is the Affiant's employment status? (You are the Affiant, the person making the Affidavit.) What is his/her job title?

• Where will the person making the Affidavit (the Affiant) sign the document?

An Affidavit of Marriage can be used as evidence of your marriage if you have received a request to verify, under oath, that your marriage is valid and you cannot locate your marriage certificate. Proof that your marriage is valid is often required when applying for a foreign visa or applying for certain accounts and insurance.

With an Affidavit of Marriage, you are declaring that you were legally married to your spouse on a particular date. The Affidavit of Marriage serves as your sworn statement that you are legally married. You can also use this document if you are divorced, but still need to prove your former marriage.
