Martha 15 Posted December 18, 2012 If you are thinking of sending an affidavit, there are a few things you should know. First, you have to send at least two or more affidavits from people other than yourself who have had knowledge of the events. Second, if your affidavit is being used as proof that you have been in the U.S. then you may chose to get it notarized but it is not necessary...if you chose to not get it notarized then you must provide a copy of the Identification of the people who wrote each affidavit. Third, according to the USCIS website, affidavits can only be used when there is a "gap" in the five year period requirement. So i would not recomment using affidavits for the whole 5 years(2007-2012) but you can call USCIS and ask them if u want. I HOPE THIS HELPS AT LEAST A LITTLE, I GOT THIS INFORMATION FROM THIS LINK http://www.uscis.gov...000082ca60aRCRD AND ALSO FROM AN OFFICER WHO ANSWERED MY QUESTIONS WHEN I CALLED USCIS. GOODLUCK EVERYBODY Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
