Hi All,
I hope there is someone able to help me in making a statutory declaration. My problem is that, my birth certificate and pbuttport show only my first name Johanes on them, meanwhile my academic certificate and transcript show my full name Johanes Rudi Siswanto on them. As per ACS advise, a self-statutory-declaration should be sufficient to clarify the discrepancies.
So, I found few templates for general statutory declaration on the web, and made a draft for my own as copied below. Would really really appreciate if anyone could give me inputs for necessary corrections-changes. But, since I live in Indonesia, I am not really familiar with the common OZ practice, and have difficulties with the wordings :-p Again, would really appreciate if you could also advise me on these matters:
1. Is a witness a mandatory for my statutory declaration? Can I pick anyone to be the witness? 2. Is everything mentioned in my statutory declaration sufficient to clarify the name mismatch?
Cheers, Johanes
