Oath Commissioner

What is an Oath Commissioner?

Oath Commissioners are appointed by the Ontario Ministry of Attorney General. They can:

  • Certify various types of declarations
  • Administer oaths
  • Certify copies of documents
  • Are authorized to witness and administer the affirmations or oaths in the taking of an affidavit or Statutory Declarations for any Canadian Immigration matter

Oath Commissioner & Canadian Immigration

When would you need an oath commissioner? When you need help with:

  • Letters of invitation for Super Visa for Parents and Visitor Visas for family & friends
  • Letters for travel consent for minors
  • Statutory declarations or sworn affidavits for immigration matters

Oath commissioners do not certify the truth of the statements contained in a document. It remains the responsibility of the deponent(s).

Furthermore, the deponent(s) must be physically present before the oath commissioner. Since the oath commissioner must satisfy the authenticity of the document(s) and ensure the identity of the deponent(s), the deponent(s) must sign on the document(s) in front of the oath commissioner.

The deponent(s) is required to confirm to the question “Do you make this solemn declaration conscientiously believing it to be true and knowing that it is of the same force and effect as if made under oath”.
