Re: Ban for 5 years to re-entry US!!HELP
You can do it yourself provided you can figure out how to fulfill the 5 items exactly as requested by USCIS.
All a lawyer is going to do in this case, is ask you for those exact 5 items and then file on your behalf, charging you in the process.. ?

Signed under penalty of perjury. Someone correct me if i am wrong, but this means you can sign it and deal with the legal consequences of lying (as opposed to the notary).

Ok, it seems it wasn't enough with my signature and I will start the process again with a notary's signature

You have 2 options, one that involves a notary and one that does not.
I can go into my local bank and get something notarised in 5 minutes for free.

She could not have made that determination just by looking at the code. Even Mr. Folinsky seems agree with that - and he is an experienced immigration attorney. So, the only sensible conclusion is that she lied to you... either deliberately or because she didn't know any better. Either way, do not contact this lawyer again... it seems that all she wants is your money.

For many years it was a one page form and did not change. A few years back it became a two page form. A year back it became a four page form. So much for the "Reduction of Paperwork Act." [I'm not joking about that law].

On the attorney chat boards, there has been a level of extreme amazement that some electronically submitted FOIA's are now getting responses within a few weeks! Of course, the redactions are something else.

You don't need a notary. This is the magic language you're looking for. This statement is an acceptable substitute for a legal jurat:
I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States of America, that the foregoing is true and correct. Executed on [date] by [signature].Ian

Also, I'm not sure that a non-LPR non-citizen outside the UD has the right to see their own records.

Re: Ban for 5 years to re-entry US!!HELP
Well guys! Thank you for your help. I went to a German notary and he charged me 24 Euros and after that I went to a translation agency to get it into English (another 25 Euros), just in case, and on Thursday when I pick the certified translation I will sent the letter again. I think this try is much cheaper than the 800 dollars of the NYC' s lawyer.

I don't know about Germany but in the UK and Canada a notary has to be a qualified practicing solicitor...and yes they do charge. In the US any man and his dog can be a notary...the manager of my local UPS store was a notary. US notaries are not recognized in the UK.
