This should be accompanied by a statutory declaration by some third person able to speak to the
fact of the identity of the person named in the copy
or extract with the person on whose behalf the proposed
contract is to be entered into.
Such a declaration may be made before any Justice
of the Peace or Solicitor of the Supreme Court.
In cases where the proposer is not in possession of
any official proof of age, the Commissioner is at
liberty to accept other sufficient proof, such as an
entry in a family Bible, and so forth, provided the
same be accompanied by reasonable evidence of the
genuine character of such entry, and due proof of
identity be given.
It would be advisable in all cases that the proper
postal address of the proposer should be given to the
office to whom the proposal is delivered.
When any person is entitled, under the terms of
any contract, to the payment of moneys by the Com-
missioner, he should at once give notice in writing of
the claim, and produce the contract upon which it is
based, to the nearest officer authorized to receive
proposals. The officer will indorse on the notice of
claim such particulars as will direct the attention of
the Commissioner to the particular transaction, and
then at once forward the notice to the Commissioner.
Should any proof of age or of identity be required,
the officer will inform the proposer thereof, and he is recommended to obtain the same without delay, in
such form as will satisfy the requirements of the
Regulations.
It is essential that in all cases of proposed change
of residence where the person whose life is insured
intends going outside of the permitted districts, that
notice in writing thereof should at once be given to
the nearest officer, stating the intended place of resi-
dence and the mode of travel to reach it.
This notice will forthwith be forwarded to the
Commissioner, who will then determine whether and
upon what terms the requisite permission will be
given.
In case of any proposed change of trade or occu-
pation, notice must also in each case be given in the
same way; and in the event of the new trade or
occupation coming within the category of "hazardous
trades or occupations," the Commissioner will deter-
mine whether he will continue the risk, and upon
what terms.
Notice of the determination of the Commissioner
in each of the foregoing cases will, without delay, be
sent to the postal address of the party affected, as
given by him.
All forms of proposal, and all notices and other
documents, must be written in a clear and legible
hand.
