New Jersey Creditors Certification of Default is a process in which a creditor establishes a claim against a debtor's assets. This certification must be filed with the court to begin the process of collection. It is a legal document that sets forth the amount of the debt, the creditor's name, the date of default, and the debtor's name. There are two types of New Jersey Creditors Certification of Default; voluntary and involuntary. A voluntary certification is when the debtor agrees to the certification and acknowledges the debt. An involuntary certification is when the creditor files the certification with the court without the debtor's consent. Both types of certification must be signed by the creditor and notarized. The creditor must also submit proof of the debt, such as a copy of the loan agreement, promissory note, or other evidence of the debt.
