    If you are making yourself bankrupt, then you don't need that one.

    That is for when you are applying to make someone else bankrupt when they owe you money.

    Possibly I suppose.

    Didn't ask me to fill that in, and I wouldn't swear on any religious text.

    I've also not heard of anyone else here being asked to fill one of those in either under those circumstances.

    In fact, the newer form 6.28 also contains on it's first page the necessary "statement of truth", rather than the affidavit that was required under the old insolvency rules and on the old forms. Perhaps your court is using the 6.13a as a transition provision?

    Odd anyway......

    My thoughts exactly Fermi, it should be included in SOA, but if they have some of the old versions they may be using a seperate statement of truth
