Question: Is there a place in austin, tx to check over an affidavit to make sure its correct? I have a small estate affidavit that i need to submit to get processed, already submitted once and it was wrong. I had to pay over 200 bucks the first time and would like to make sure its correct this time. The attorney I went to tried to make me spend more than i was going to and all i wanna do it make sure this affidavit is correct.
Answer: Of the law libraries in Austin, i.e. State Capitol Law Library, the Supreme Court Law Library, the Travis County Law Library (in the Travis County Courthouse), and the U. of Texas School of Law Library, the most likely librarian help will be at the U. of Texas, then next at the Travis County Law Library, then next at the State Capitol, then lastly at the Supreme Court Law Library. Any one of the four will have sample small estate affidavits within their Wills, Estate and Probate form books. In years past, one could stop in unannounced and see if the Probate Court Consultant was not busy, and he would be friendly enough to answer simple questions on uncontested matters - you might try that also.
Question: Should I have received a copy of the affidavit showing what was being searched for and where allowed to search? Police came with search warrant. Took something from truck. Should I have been given a copy of the affidavit telling where they could search and what they were searching for?Example,They are looking for Sawed off gun and they find illegal firecraker. That would mea they aquired the firecrackers illegaly. Right? I hope someone can help. Thank you in advance. Not true case just examples.
Answer: The police are not required to provide you a copy of the warrant much less the affidavit they submitted to obtain the warrant.
The issue about other things found during a search that were no listed as the things being sought is a little more complex. However, basically anything else found during the search is admissible if the item or items being sought could have been located where the other unlisted item was found.
So in your example, if the firecracker was under the seat it would be admissible as it is likely a sawed off shotgun could be stored under the seat. However if it was in a small case inside of the center console it would likely be excluded as there is no way a sawed off shotgun would fit in such a small space.
Question: Do i need the affidavit of parental consent for my daughter signed by my husband? I'm going to travel with my daughter to Italy to visit my husband and my in laws there.. They said that i have to provide an affidavit of parental consent for my daughter. I read that if a minor is traveling with one parent the affidavit needs to be signed by the non traveling parent.. So should i ask my husband to make an affidavit for my daughter? Even if he is also not here and he is the one who we are going to visit?
Answer: will you travel with Italian passports? if so, no, you will not need an authorization from your husband.
if US passports?
i have always traveled with US passports and never had to have an affidavit from anyone,
when the child has a different passport than yours? it might cause a problem.
Question: Can a permanent resident apply for medicaid? Does the affidavit of support sponsor need to pay the medicaid? Does a green card holder have the same rights to apply for medicaid as a U.S. Citizen or does the sponsor for the affidavit of support have to pay for the medicaid benefits? Are there any websites to state which is true?

They are not eligible for medicaid benefits.

Question: Is there any formal affidavit you have to sign when you don't want to press charges against a perpetrator ? I was assaulted in my home by a roommate.He is in jail.I said I wouldn't press charges but his defense attorney wants me to sign an affidavit stating that I am not pressing charges.What do you think I should do ?
Answer: What you shoudl do is go into court on the assigned date and speak with the Distrct Attorney to see if they would be willing to drop the charges....one of two things will happen....they will agree to do it or they won't. Sometimes depending on circumstances the State doesn't need to have a witness to prosecute a case...so the best bet is to contact the DA to see how they want to do it...chances are you will only be in court a few mintes and if the other person doesn't have any other legal problems, then it can go out the windown.
Best of luck
Question: How binding is the affidavit of support document? If someone was given and affidavit of support of furnishing room, board and a monthly cash amount to an immigrant to the us, would the supporter be held responsible if he fails to give support while he can?

Question: How do I to get a Green card through an affidavit sponsorship? Hello, I am from Peru. I have a mentor that I am not related to, in the USA who wants to sponsor me to come live with them so that I may be able to go to college there and explore other opportunities for my life. If I take the affidavit sponsorship papers to my embassy will that be enough to get a green card? Is there anything else that I will need?
Answer: I know a little bit about the immigration process, as my husband is British and has his green card.
Yes, non family member CAN sponsor you. As long as they meet the financial requirements. (at least that was how it was 2 yrs ago)
As for what you should take. Sponsorship form should be filled out. Evidence of the sponsors financial situation. Usually tax return for last 3 yrs, bank statements and job letter will do. You will also need your birth certificate. 2 passport photos. You will need to show some sort of communication between you and your sponsor. Phone bills, letters etc etc. (that just doesn't apply for marriage Visa btw)
I cant think of anything else right off hand.
Good luck

Question: What kind of evidence do I need to file a sworn affidavit? What kind of evidence is needed to file a sworn affidavit?
I know you need the investigators report for felony charges but what else? Or if I have evidence of the person commiting the crime (like a video tape) do I even need to file one?
Answer: If you mean a sworn affidavit as in what a police officer would file in order to get an arrest warrant..........you dont need evidence at all.
Evidence is what the prosecutor will collect when building his case, all you need is a feeling that a crime has been committed at the very least.
Be careful though, if your doing it purely out of malice you could end up with a lawsuit against you.

Question: How do I obtain a Single Status Affidavit for use in France? I'm getting married in France sometime in the near future and need to provide a Single Status Affidavit.
I need answers from people who know what they're talking about. Please don't copy/paste from websites, as I've read most of them and none of them really make any sense.
Answer: Basically you have to make a sworn statement that you have not been married before in front of an attorney or a lawyer in your country, and the document has to be translated into French by a body recognised by the official authorities and be certified as the correct translation of the original document by an apostille. Usually this has to be dated less than three months previous to your application for marriage.
This is what a sworn statement looks like:
AFFIDAVIT OF SINGLE STATUS
On this date of_________________, I,(name of affiant),residing at(street and number)(city)(state)(zip code)
BEING DULY SWORN DEPOSE AND SAY:
I was born on(date)at(city)(country)

Signature of the Affiant: ____________________
Name in Print: ____________________________
(For the Notary Public)

N.B. Your post is marked as being from the USA. If you have no attorney near by, there are several American firms that specialise in that sort of thing and would deal with matters for you on the net saving you hassle. For instance look at the following:

Question: What is the benefit of padding the Sworn Financial Affidavit in a divorce? My ex is padding her financial affidavit with a ridiculous amount of expenses that show her having a shortfall of 200 dollars a month. What is the purpose of this? Though custody is joint, I will have to pay child support. Does it have something to do with inflating that amount?
