What Is a Child Custody Affidavit
A child custody affidavit is a sworn statement related to child custody matters. These affidavits may be required for court proceedings, immigration cases, or other legal matters involving children. Most institutions require these documents to be notarized to verify authenticity.
Common Uses
Child custody affidavits are commonly needed for:
- Court proceedings – Custody hearings and modifications
- Immigration filings – Cases involving children
- Travel authorization – Consent for minor travel
- School enrollment – Custody documentation for schools
- Medical decisions – Consent for medical treatment
Why Notarization Is Required
Courts and immigration authorities require child custody affidavits to be notarized to verify the identity of the person making the statement and ensure the document is authentic. Notarization adds legal weight and helps prevent fraud in sensitive matters involving children.
