The Georgia Office of Insurance and Safety Fire Commissioner is required to verify the citizenship of all new and renewal insurance license applicants.
The following documents must be included with every application submitted:
1. A signed and notarized copy of the Citizenship Affidavit Form; and
2. A copy of the front AND back of one secure and verifiable identification document. (These documents may be submitted electronically.)
All applicants are required to submit LEGIBLE COPIES of these two documents before an application can be processed. If applying on behalf of a business entity, then an employee or officer of the business entity, who has authority, must complete and submit these documents.
In addition, if the individual (or, for a business entity, the employer or officer with authority) are not a United States citizen, the Office is required by law to verify the individual’s immigration status through the Federal Systematic Alien Verification of Entitlement (SAVE) program.
AN APPLICATION CANNOT BE PROCESSED IF THE CITIZENSHIP AFFIDAVIT FORM IS NOT COMPLETELY FILLED OUT.
