Which term refers to a written statement signed and sworn to before a person authorized to administer an oath?

  1. Actual Notice

  2. Ad Valorem Tax

  3. Administrative Fee

  4. Affidavit

The correct answer is: Actual Notice

An affidavit is a written statement that is signed and sworn to before a person authorized to administer an oath. This means that the person making the statement is legally bound to the accuracy of the information provided. In contrast, actual notice refers to information that has been physically received or seen by a person, while an ad valorem tax and administrative fee are types of taxes and fees that are unrelated to signing a written statement.
