Proof of Identity PDF — Free Declaration (Private, No Upload)
Financial institutions, landlords, and courts sometimes request a sworn statement confirming who you are. Instead of emailing a full copy of your ID, use CourtPDF’s Proof of Identity generator to share only what they need—the last four digits, issuing authority, and a signed declaration that stays on your device.
When agencies ask for proof of identity
- Banks & credit unions: Compliance teams often request a declaration with your last four digits during account reviews or fraud investigations.
- Landlords & property managers: Housing providers may ask for a letter if the name on utility bills differs from the tenant’s legal ID.
- Courts & legal aid: Judges may require a sworn statement to confirm identity before accepting affidavits or notarized filings.
How to use the free tool
- Open the Proof of Identity tool and load the sample to preview the layout with masked ID digits.
- Enter your full name, date of birth, ID type, and issuing authority. Only type the last four digits—the PDF emphasizes privacy and reminds recipients to redact full numbers.
- Preview the PDF instantly, then download or print it locally. Attach a redacted copy of your ID if the requester still needs a visual reference.
Privacy best practices
- Mask sensitive numbers on scans and share them via secure channels or in person.
- Keep a log of who requested the declaration and why; this helps if questions arise later.
- Combine the declaration with supporting documents like a Proof of Income PDF or Rent Ledger when proving eligibility.
- Need to verify deliveries too? Pair it with the Proof of Delivery PDF or Proof of Residency letter to build a complete packet.
