Jersey/Guernsey Life Certificates

When a client is receiving a Jersey/Guernsey pension in New Zealand they are required to complete life certificates by the Jersey/Guernsey authorities.

The Jersey/Guernsey authorities will send the life certificate form directly to the client when it is due.

The client should complete the life certificate and return it directly to Jersey/Guernsey.

If a client needs the life certificate witnessed it is important to check that:

  • the life certificate is fully completed, signed and dated
  • the client's address has been verified and
  • the certificate has been stamped with the office date stamp in the presence of the client

The life certificate is returned to the client to send directly to the Jersey/Guernsey authorities.
