How We Help

Certified true copy services for Ajax clients.

We compare the original document to the copy, confirm whether true-copy certification is appropriate, and complete the certification wording required by the receiving organization where possible.

Ajax clients often need certified true copies for immigration, school, licensing, banking, employment, estate, or business files.

Goldstone Law PC helps confirm the copy against the original before it is submitted.

Ajax clients often need certified true copies because an organization wants to keep a copy while allowing the original record to remain with the client. This can happen with immigration, citizenship, school, licensing, employment, banking, estate, business, insurance, or government files. The copy should be prepared carefully because the receiving office may reject a copy that does not follow its instructions.

Goldstone Law PC helps Ajax clients review what is being requested before the copy is certified. We compare the original document to the copy, check visible details such as names, dates, seals, pages, stamps, and signatures, and complete certification where appropriate. If the recipient has provided special wording, every-page requirements, or a request for color copies, those instructions should be brought to the appointment.

Certified true copies may involve passports, permanent resident cards, driver’s licences, birth or marriage certificates, academic records, professional licences, powers of attorney, estate documents, corporate records, resolutions, and application packages. In most cases, the original document must be available because a scan or photo is usually not enough for true-copy certification.

Some certified copies are used outside Canada or as part of a larger file. Depending on the destination, the copy may also need notarization, apostille, authentication, translation, or further review by the receiving authority. We can help clients understand that possibility before the documents are submitted.

For Ajax clients, the process is straightforward when the right materials are available. Bring the original, clear copies, the number of copies needed, valid identification, and any written instructions from the organization requesting the certified copy.

We also help clients decide whether the copy should be certified as a single page, every page, or part of a package. That detail can matter for applications where page order, attachments, color copies, or multiple certified sets are specifically requested.
