Reference
Cite the original affidavit by date, title, and file or case number so readers can locate the prior statement.
A Supplementary Affidavit preserves the evidentiary record when new facts emerge or errors need correction. It helps avoid delays, supports procedural compliance, and creates a notarized, time-stamped record that decision-makers and agencies can rely on.

Use the form when the new information affects rights, obligations, eligibility, or the accuracy of the original affidavit.
