St.Hilaire" To: Discussion of Residency Issues State Wide Subject: RE: Immigration Issue In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII ***I guess requiring a notarized statement would impress on the student and parents the seriousness of the matter, but you may be able to detect from appearances that, in this case, an un-notarized letter from the parents would suffice. That is, if you have no reason to suspect that he's lying when he says he's living with his parents, I wouldn't bother asking for a notary's verification, which technically says only that the parents signed the letter.
