About the ID Theft Affidavit

The ID Theft Affidavit is a standard form that simplifies the process of reporting identity theft. It's designed to help us investigate and resolve your claim efficiently. Here are a few key points to keep in mind:

  • •     Ensure that all information is accurate and complete to avoid delays.
  • •     Sign the affidavit in the presence of a witness or notary.
  • •     Check off the option to press charges to proceed with the investigation.
  • •     If you're unable to complete the affidavit, a legal guardian or someone with power of attorney may do so on your behalf.
