Writing Affidavit Help

[eclipsezero 0]

I had a further question regarding writing the affidavit.

Can these be from family members?

Also, for instance if they're from family members, can it by from both my parents (on the same affidavit) or would I just include my father on one? I thought I'd use my parents, my wives parents and a friend. Would this work?

This will be fine, and if both parents, they should be able to sign the same affidavit.

Hi eclipsezero, what we did with our affidavits are my mom and his mom, 2 from my friends who attended the wedding and i believe 4 from our friends in WY who knows our relationship since we became friends and started dating. Just make sure that they will confirm/affirm that your relationship and true then sign it. Good luck!

I had my sister, my aunt who attended the wedding, and two of my cousins write the affidavits.

I grew up with my cousins, went to school together, even took same college classes...I am close with the youngest of my aunts, and of course I am very close to my sister...so they wrote that since they have known me so long they believe they are a good judge of my character, and from all details they know about our relationship they conclude that our relationship is genuine and our marriage is bona fide.

They included information when they met my husband what they thought of our interaction, bla bla bla

They provided their passport numbers, and wrote in the affidavit that they declare under the penalty of perjury that our marriage is bona fide. Signed, dated, notarized.

Hope this helps you

Yes.

You DO NOT have to get it notarized. Just writing a letter is fine.

What I was getting at is that IF you ARE having someone write an affidavit, then let them state WHY they think or know that your marriage is bona fide. The point of affidavit is not to prove that you are married, but that you are married "for the right reasons".

I decided to have our affidavits notarized so that they have more "weight"...
