Synopsis.
The contractor submits this affidavit with the final request for payment, stating that all payrolls, bills for materials and equipment, and other indebtedness connected with the work for which the owner might be responsible has been paid or otherwise satisfied. AIA Document G706–1994 requires the contractor to list any indebtedness or known claims in connection with the construction contract that have not been paid or otherwise satisfied. The contractor may also be required to furnish a lien bond or indemnity bond to protect the owner with respect to each exception. For use and execution of a document, see its instructions »
Purpose.
AIA Document G706 is intended for use when the Contractor is required to provide a sworn statement verifying that debts and claims have been settled, except for those listed by the Contractor under “EXCEPTIONS” in the document. AIA Document G706 is typically executed as a condition of final payment.
