Document background
The Sole Guardian Affidavit serves as a crucial legal instrument in Singapore's family law framework when an individual needs to establish themselves as the sole guardian of another person. This document becomes necessary in situations such as the death of parents, incapacitation of existing guardians, or when sole guardianship is required for other compelling reasons. The affidavit must be executed in accordance with Singapore's legal requirements, particularly the Guardianship of Infants Act and Family Justice Act. It contains detailed information about the declarant's relationship with the ward, circumstances necessitating guardianship, and evidence of the declarant's capability to assume guardian responsibilities.
