What is an affidavit?
An affidavit is a written statement of facts that the person making it (the affiant) swears or affirms to be true, usually before a notary. Because it is sworn, an affidavit carries legal weight and is accepted by courts, agencies, banks, and other institutions as evidence of the facts it states.
Affidavits are used for a wide range of purposes — confirming identity or residence, supporting a court filing, establishing heirship, or documenting a fact when no other record exists.
Affidavit generator — create an affidavit online
An online affidavit generator walks you through the affiant's name and address, the sworn statement of facts, the date, and a notary (jurat) block, then produces a printable PDF. That is faster and cleaner than starting from a blank Word template, especially when you need a professional layout for a court, bank, or agency.
On iRunDocs, open the affidavit generator, enter only true facts, preview the PDF, then sign in front of a notary if your receiving party requires it. "Online" means you prepare the document online — the oath and signature still happen according to local notary rules.
Common types of affidavit
Frequently requested affidavits include a general affidavit (any sworn statement), affidavit of residence or identity, affidavit of heirship (to establish heirs when someone dies without a will), affidavit of support, and small-estate affidavits. Each follows the same core structure: the affiant's details, a clear statement of facts, and a signature and notary (jurat) block.
If you need an affidavit of heirship, use state-specific guidance where available and confirm that the county or title company will accept the form. General affidavits are not a substitute for a court order when one is required.
How to make an affidavit that will be accepted
Keep the statement specific, dated, and strictly truthful — an affidavit is sworn under penalty of perjury. Number the facts, attach only accurate exhibits, and do not sign until you know whether a notary is required, because most affidavits must be signed in front of a notary to be valid.
The iRunDocs affidavit generator builds the statement, affiant details, and notary block into a clean, printable PDF. Confirm the receiving party's specific requirements before signing.
Frequently asked questions
What is an affidavit generator?
It is an online tool that builds a sworn written statement (affidavit) as a printable PDF, with affiant details, fact statement, and notary block. iRunDocs provides a guided affidavit generator for that purpose.
Can I create an affidavit online?
Yes. You can prepare an affidavit online, download the PDF, and complete signing and notarization as required. Preparing the form online does not replace the notary step when one is required.
What is the difference between an affidavit and a notarized statement?
An affidavit is a sworn statement of facts under oath or affirmation. Notarization (a jurat) is how that oath is usually administered. A simple notarized signature without a sworn statement of facts is not the same as an affidavit.
Does an affidavit have to be notarized?
Most affidavits must be signed in front of a notary (a jurat) to be accepted. Some settings allow an unsworn declaration instead. Check what the receiving court, agency, or institution requires.
What is an affidavit of heirship?
It is a sworn statement identifying a deceased person's heirs, often used to transfer property when there is no will. Requirements and acceptance vary by state and institution. See the iRunDocs heirship guide and state pages for orientation.
What happens if I lie on an affidavit?
An affidavit is sworn under penalty of perjury. Making a false statement can carry serious legal consequences, so only affirm facts you know to be true.
Can I write my own affidavit?
Yes. You can prepare your own affidavit and have it notarized. The iRunDocs affidavit generator organizes the statement and notary block into a clean PDF for you to review and sign.
Is iRunDocs legal advice?
No. iRunDocs provides document tools and educational information, not legal advice. For contested or high-stakes matters, consult a licensed attorney.
