The South Carolina Affidavit to Obtain Bank Balance is a document commonly used in South Carolina court cases to collect financial information about a party involved in a dispute. This affidavit is used to obtain information from a bank about a party's bank balance, including deposits, withdrawals, transfers, and other activity. The affidavit is typically used to prove a party's financial worth in a case, such as in a debt collection action or in a breach of contract case. There are two types of South Carolina Affidavit to Obtain Bank Balance: the South Carolina Affidavit to Obtain Bank Balance for a Depository Account, and the South Carolina Affidavit to Obtain Bank Balance for a Loan Account. The former is used to obtain financial information related to a party's deposits, withdrawals, and transfers in a depository account, such as a checking or savings account. The latter is used to obtain financial information related to a party's loan account, such as a mortgage or car loan. Both affidavits must be signed by a notary public in order to be valid.
