When filing for I-129F, is a divorce decree sufficient as evidence of termination of prior marriages?

Hi,

Based on Form I-129F Instructions page 5:

"If either of you was married before, submit evidence that all prior marriages have been terminated. Evidence of termination of prior marriages may include a divorce decree, or an annulment or a death certificate issued by a competent civil authority."

However, I got confused by some mixed information I researched/got from some other online fora. One suggests that besides a divorce decree, you need to have a statement declaring that you have not been married since the divorce. And have that statement notarized.

Is it necessary? Please advise. Thanks.
