COMMISSIONER
OF
OATHS 

Lumen Immigration Services provide Oath Commissioning Service for immigration services to clients in Ontario.

 

A commissioner is a person authorized by the Province of Ontario to take oaths or declarations when you sign an affidavit or statutory declaration. A commissioner for taking affidavits (also known as commissioner of oaths) is not the same as a notary public. A commissioner has authority only to administer oaths and take affidavits.

 

The person signing the affidavit must show government issued identification that contains a current photo and signature, such as a valid driver’s licence. You are required to sign in the presence of the commissioner.

  • Visitor Visa Invitation Letter
