Document background
The Affidavit For Marriage Green Card is a crucial document required when a spouse seeks permanent residency in the United States based on marriage to a U.S. citizen or permanent resident. Created under Nigerian jurisdiction, this affidavit serves as formal evidence of a genuine marriage relationship. It must be executed in accordance with Nigerian legal requirements, particularly the Oaths Act and Commissioner for Oaths Act, while satisfying U.S. immigration documentation standards. The document typically includes detailed information about the couple's relationship, marriage, shared life, and financial integration, supported by documentary evidence. This affidavit forms part of the broader immigration application package and must be properly authenticated by authorized Nigerian officials to be considered valid for both Nigerian and U.S. legal purposes.
