DECLARATIONS
The following are examples of wording used in commonly
requested Affidavits and Statutory Declarations. Similar wording,
as may be applicable to you, can be typed into the body of the

"IN THE MATTER OF"
The typical Statutory Declaration has a heading "In The
Matter Of". In this part, simply say who or what the

Loss Of A Credit Card
Joseph Adam Smith, born
December 5, 1960, am the owner of GM Visa Credit Card No.
4520593044445555.
On January 2, 2002, while on
vacation at Las Vegas, Nevada, U.S.A., I used the aforesaid GM
Visa Credit Card at a Texaco gas station. This is the only time
I used the said credit card at Las Vegas.
When I received my GM Visa
statement, I noticed numerous other transactions totalling
$3,562.42 also incurred in Las Vegas during the period of
January 14 to 18, 2002.
None of the transactions
between January 14 and January 18, 2002 were authorized by me.
I make this affidavit to explain that I did not incur the
aforesaid charges and for no other purpose.
Witness to Signature
I, Joseph Adam Smith, was
personally present and did see the annexed instrument and a
duplicate of it duly signed, sealed, and executed by Frederick
Matthews, one of the parties to it.
The instrument and duplicate
were executed by Frederick Matthews at the City of Toronto in
the Province of Ontario.
I know the said Frederick
Matthews.
I am a subscribing witness to the instrument and
duplicate.
Sponsoring A Foreign Relative/Visitor
I, Joseph Adam Smith, born
December 5, 1960, am the brother of John Peter Smith, born April
30, 1963.
I have lived in Canada
permanently since June 2, 1980 and currently reside at 123 Main
Street, Toronto. My Social Insurance Number is 123 456 789.
My brother John Peter Smith is planning to come to Canada
and I am prepared to sponsor him in that I will provide him with
all food and accommodation which he requires until he is able to
become self-sufficient (or while he is visiting Canada).

should attempt to state every relevant fact in separate numbered
paragraphs. Frequently, there will be a specific form to be
filled out (e.g., for transfer of vehicles), which should be read
carefully before filling out the blank lines.
