Statutory Declaration of landlord

[mgram]

I am filling out the Declaration to apply for deductionsfrom tenants deposit as I have not heard back from the T after 4 weeks of writing/
e mailing.
Under the signature witness panel it has 'SOLICITOR/COMMISIONER FOR OATHS/MAGISTRATE (DELETE AS APPLICABLE)

Does this mean it can ONLY be witnessed by one of these 3 occupations?

[PaulF]

No, it's only if one of these has completed the form - hence 'delete as appropriate'. I thought this might be obvious.

Thanks Paul,
It was not obvious to me, otherwise I would not have asked.....
Going through four lots of Power of Attorney paperwork also, so I may be too getting paranoid about detail.
Many thanks for your help.

IIRC last time I had to provide a Stat Dec, it had to be completed by one of those 3 legal persons, who listened to my reading out the Stat Dec (affirmation) & signed accordingly.
