Affidavit of Two Disinterested Persons (No Middle Name)
An Affidavit of Two Disinterested Persons is a sworn written statement made by two individuals who:
- Are not related by blood or marriage to the person involved (the subject of the affidavit);
- Have no financial or personal interest in the matter; and
- Can truthfully attest to specific facts about that person based on personal knowledge.
Purpose of this Affidavit
This document is commonly used when someone needs to prove or correct information in the absence of formal records, such as:
- Correcting errors in birth certificates or civil records
- Establishing identity or civil status
- Proving residency or age
- Supporting late registration of birth
Contents of the Affidavit
A typical affidavit of two disinterested persons includes:
- Full names, ages, and addresses of the two affiants
- A declaration that they personally know the person concerned
- A statement confirming the correct information being attested
- A sworn statement declaring the truth of their testimony
- Signatures of both affiants and a notary public
This affidavit is important because it serves as supporting testimony when official documents are missing or contain errors. Since the affiants are “disinterested,” their statements are considered impartial and credible.
