A New York Affidavit of Personal Service is a sworn statement that is used to verify that certain documents have been served or delivered to a particular individual. It must be signed by the person who served the documents in order to be legally binding. The affidavit is usually filed with the court as proof that the documents were delivered to the intended recipient. There are two types of New York Affidavit of Personal Service: The Affidavit of Personal Service by Mail and the Affidavit of Personal Service by Hand Delivery. The Affidavit of Personal Service by Mail is used to verify that the documents have been sent through the mail or by courier service, while the Affidavit of Personal Service by Hand Delivery is used to verify that the documents have been delivered in person. Both affidavits must contain the date and time of service, the name and address of the person receiving the documents, the name and address of the person serving the documents, and a signed statement confirming that the documents were served or delivered.
