Hi all! A quick question. I am about to file for removal of conditions on my green card, Just found out that filing fees are going up in a couple days and i want to catch the old rates thats why i am in a hurry, besides why wait?
We have gathered all the evidence we could gather, I know we need affidavits from at least 2 people who know us as a married couple. Do these affidavits need to be notarized? I dont feel comfortable asking friends to do that in the first place and in the second place I remember that public notary is in the bank and all of our friends work the same hours as banks do. Do we really have to cause all this inconvenience to our friends or just signing these affidavits will be enough?

Notarizing is preferred, if you send in enough evidence you might not even have a interview.

A loy of copy stores and other little businesses aldo notarize things.

No need to notarize those statements, they are not enforceable in any court of law. Just send enough evidence and you will be fine. Ive never send any statement to USCIS to vouch for the validity of my marriage, my actions in public vouch for it on a daily basis. I just naturalized under 3 year rule, send the same and more information with my application, when I interviewed for naturalization, no evidence was required because they got it with my application. Dont over-analyze issues, fraud marriages are easy to spot, if you are genuine, you have nothing to worry about.
