Description

The following form is a jurat or certificate of authorized officer that an Affidavit was properly made regarding an illiterate affiant with at least two witnesses. A Surat or Certificate of Authorized Officer is a legal document issued by a certified officer, typically a notary public, to authenticate the execution of an affidavit. In Chicago, Illinois, this certification ensures that the affidavit was properly made and witnessed, particularly when the affine is illiterate. This process contains several types of Rats or Certificates of Authorized Officer, which may include: 1. Standard Surat — The most common typstrataat used in Chicago, Illinois, is the Standard Surat. It involves the notary public or authorized officer witnessing the affine's signature in person, confirming their identity, and administering an oath or affirmation to validate the contents of the affidavit. 2. Illiterate Affine Surat — Specifically designed for illiterate individuals, this Surat is utilized when an affine is unable to sign their name due to illiteracy. In such cases, the affine's mark (e.g., a cross, thumbprint) is made in the presence of the notary public or authorized officer, who then certifies the mark as the affine's signature. 3. Witnessed Surat — Sometimes, an affidavit may require additional witness signatures to bolster its credibility. This Witnessed Surat involves the notary public or authorized officer overseeing additional witnesses who authenticate the affine's signature, identity, and oath or affirmation. 4. Multi-Lingual Surat — In multicultural communities like Chicago, notaries may encounter individuals who are more comfortable speaking a language other than English. A Multi-Lingual Surat is used when the affine needs the oath or affirmation translated into their preferred language, allowing them to fully understand the affidavit's contents before signing it. 5. Deposition Surat — In certain legal proceedings like depositions, where witnesses give oral testimony under oath, a Deposition Surat is required. This Surat form certifies that the witness's deposition testimony was given under oath or affirmation in the presence of the officer, who may also administer the oath. 6. Corporate Surat — When an affidavit involves a corporation or organization, a Corporate Surat is utilized. This certificate verifies that the affine, typically an authorized officer or representative, was acting on behalf of the entity in question, and includes information such as the company's name, position of the affine, and their authority to act. Chicago, Illinois has specific legal requirements and regulations governing Rats or Certificates of Authorized Officers, ensuring the proper execution of affidavits. These various types of Rats accommodate different circumstances and provide necessary authentication, particularly when an affidavit involves an illiterate affine and witnesses. Notary public and authorized officers play crucial roles in certifying these documents, guaranteeing their accuracy and upholding their legality.
