I Have I-864 and I-864A.

I thought the signatures had to be notarized, but I'm looking and don't see a place for Notary.

But that's essentially all a Notary does is bears witness to identity and signature.

I just took a look at the I-864, I-864EZ, and I-864A, and didn't see anywhere that it needed to be notarized.

I took another look at the I-134 (used for K-1 visa) and it clearly has a section at the end where the oath of responsibility has to be notarized.

Very odd...because the I-134 is not a binding contract (per se) and the I-864 is a binding contract.

That is, once the K-1 is granted, you can still decide not to marry...the responsibilities are null, and the beneficiary returns to their home country.

With a CR-1 and the I-864, you are bound to the beneficiary even if you separate or divorce, until such time that they return to their home country or have conditions removed.

Given the vast difference in responsibility, one would think that the I-864 would require notary as well. But apparently it does not.
