The jurat is a section of the affidavit form that includes the place and date the affidavit is sworn and the authorised affidavit taker's signature, name and personal or professional address, and authority to take the affidavit. The affidavit is now made. For more information on affidavits including forms and a list of people who can take affidavits visit justice.vic.gov.au
