If this Affidavit is to support the alien's acquisition of permanent residency in a marriage-based petitoin, then the affiant is declaring that he/she has personal knowledge of the bona fide nature of the alien's marriage.
It can be anecdotal, in that it reflects on the type of activities they have shared which leads the affiant to declare that theirs is a genuine marital union.
The Affidavit letter can be composed in many ways. Naturally, the information that is critical is the Affiant's name, address and relationship with the alien, and his/her spouse. How long the affiant has known the individual(s) and in what manner.
Then there can be a paragraph where the affiant makes a comment on the relationship that the alien has with his/her spouse; that is is a loving marriage; a good family home; they are planning to have children; etc..
The above is simply an opinion. Your mileage may vary. For immigration issues, please consult an immigration attorney.
