sworn affidavits needed or not?

Hi everyone,

So I am collecting the evidence and I've noticed a lot of people here don't submit the sworn affidavits even though that on the USCIS instructions says that you need it. What is the deal witht his?

Are they needed or not?

cheers,

David Saiz.

They are on the list of suggested evidence, but if you have other evidence you don't need them. I believe I read somewhere on VJ that they are not seen as really solid evidence because it would be too easy to get a friend or family member to write a false affidavit. It certainly wouldn't HURT to send them, but you won't be approved based entirely on them, either. They're just icing (like pictures). We did not send any affidavits and we've been approved.

Edited: We didn't have an interview, either. They just approved us based on the evidence we mailed in. We had really solid financial comingling (two mortgages and a car), I don't know how much that helped, but it was there.
