I messaged my supervisor over 2 weeks ago requesting the letter and she's been taking forever and that's all I need to send off my i-864 packet. Does anyone know if i can type it on my own and sign it?

You are going to forge your supervisor's name or sign it yourself?

Better to just type it up and give it to your supervisor to sign.

They are not looking for you to swear that you have employment. They are looking for "proof" of employment. You writing them a letter is not proof, nor is it evidence of any kind. It is just you stating that you have employment. You should get an employment verification letter. You can write it. Just get your employer/supervisor to sign it in front of you. Tell them how important it is to get this done immediately. You writing a letter and signing it is not verification of your employment. Anyone can do that.

We never sent in a letter of employment. We submitted copies of his pay stubs and a letter explaining why we didnt have the letter. We figured at the time, that if we got an RFE for it, then so be it, we would take care of it at that point. We never got an RFE for it.

If I were you, I wouldnt send in a letter of employment at all, I would send a letter stating why I didnt have one, then back of proof of employment with current pay stubs.

Good luck

HR is way to go for larger companies. I went to HR twice during journey for different letters. Easy to get really quick. Company letterhead.

God luck.

A current pay stub showing your year to date earnings is an excellent substitute for an employer letter. I actually prefer the pay stub.

Facts are cheap...knowing how to use them is precious...

Thank you. I'm going to make copies of all my pay stubs now.
