It is true that an affidavit is not required but if you do use one it DOES need to be notarized. The definition of affidavit from wikipedia:

An affidavit (/ˌæfɨˈdvɨt/ a-fə-day-vət) is a written sworn statement of fact voluntarily made by an affiant or deponent under an oath or affirmation administered by a person authorized to do so by law. Such statement is witnessed as to the authenticity of the affiant's signature by a taker of oaths, such as a notary public or commissioner of oaths.
