Hi everybody. I have a very simple question. When filing Affidavit of Support, I have to get it notarized by a Public Notary. I was told that it should be done by some sort of special Public Notary, who is certified to take oaths. A regular Public Notary is not enough, because he/she only verifies your signature, but does not take your oath. Does anybody have any experience with this issue? Your advice will be greatly appreciated.

thanks,

Yuriy and Maryam

Like Lona, I had mine done at the bank. It was free. I have used their notary for everything and my hubby was approved and has been here since 2005. We are currently filing to lift conditions and used the same bank (different notary now) to have things notarized.

Your oath is on the paper. The notary only needs to verifies you were the person to sign it. When you have an interview, you will also be put under oath.

Good luck!

A notary public at a bank or city hall..etc are fine. They are just an impartial witness to the signing of the documents.

You do not need a civil law notary as you find in many other parts of the world.
