Summary checklist for JP clients

Valerie Wong from Northland Justices of the Peace Association

* Phone the JP for an appointment (unless going to one of our local Service Desks).
* Explain what it is you need to be completed - some documents can take more time than you expect.
* Do not sign any of your documents beforehand - you may complete the details required but if the document needs to be witnessed, declared or sworn, the Justice of the Peace must complete what is required and must personally see you sign it.
* Please bring photo ID preferably otherwise some other form of identification. It may not be required but it pays to be prepared.
* If the documentation you are requiring to be processed originated outside of New Zealand, check that a NZ JP can complete it for you. In some cases, a JP may not be able to act and you may need the services of a Notary Public.
* If you need a certified copy of a document, please bring the original document and the cop(y/ies) that need(s) certifying.

For the complete checklist, visit the Royal Federation of NZ Justices' Associations website.

Poll: Have you ever been bullied?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.

This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.

Have you or your whānau ever experienced bullying? Share your thoughts on Pink Shirt Day below.
