Exact same affadavit for each set of parents?

[HelpNeeded101 11]

When I was doing the evidence for my I-130 last year, my parents aren't really the type that use a computer and type paragraphs etc.. So I basically just made a pre-written affadavit for both my parents and my wife's parents and had them sign them. Will this be strange to the CO at the interview? Will they even look at the affadavits? All the affadavits are the exact same just with different names basically saying that they certify that the marriage is bonafide and how we met, when I proposed, and when we got married. You guys think im overthinking it or will it look bad for a pre-written affadavit to just be signed by each set of parents?

By the way we have a ton of other evidence of bonafide marriage so im not worried about that part at all, just wondering if these affadavits would be frowned upon since they are clearly written by me and just signed by the parents.

Clearly, parents signed affidavits that are not theirs. This is why affidavits are weak weak evidence. Just skip the affidavits and stick to the other tons of evidence you have. Good luck.

In this case it's better not to provide affidavits at all rather than providing multiples with same content but signed by different people.

Problem is these affadavits have already been turned into CEAC and the I-130 submission. I hope the officer just ignores them. I am already DQed btw just waiting for the interview.

I believe that as long as the information is correct then it is okay. My understanding of an affidavit is it is just to confirm that the information on the letter is correct with a signature/with an oath. I have signed legal affidavits before which I have not written (but the information was correct).

Quality over quantity....always.
