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.

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.
