They are not only not needed, but pretty worthless.

If you cannot prove that you have been married and living together for the past 1-3/4 year, Affidavits won't help you either.

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.

We are married for two years, have a daughter of 18 months old and my husband adopted my son from previous marriage, we all live together, have joint bank savings and credit accounts, joint car insurance, already filed our joint tax returns twice. I think we have enough of proofs. But in the instructions to the I-751 itself it IS said that we need these affidavits, though nothing is said about notary certification...why would they ask about these papers if they are not needed?

Thank you for helping))) :thumbs:

Actually the packet specifically says that what's provided on the instruction sheet are merely examples of what you should provide. From what I took of it that meant it wasn't entirely necessary but a suggestion.

Am I wrong in this thinking?

I'm sorry, I didn't understand what is ROC :blush: . And still don't understand if they should be notary certified?

ROC is Removal of Conditions, which is what you are applying to do with the I-751. The general "rule" is to use the affidavits if your evidence is thin. If you have plenty of solid evidence, then they are not needed. Many people are approved without them. Notarizing is not required. Some people choose to have them notarized, and some do not.

They are a suggestion, not a requirement. I did not send any but would have if I got RFE'd. I did not get an RFE or interview for ROC (I-751)

Nope you're right. They're merely a suggestion and rarely looked at (any one of your friends/family would lie for you).
