Single Status Affidavit at US Consulate?

For those who have married in Brazil:

Has anybody gotten their Single Status Affidavit at a US Consulate or Embassy in Brazil? I was told the one I wrote up myself and had sealed by the County Clerk could not be apostilled as my state has its own Single Status (of which I've found absolutely zero info online-- just a piece of paper with basic info the apostille office gave me)-- but there's no guarantee it will be what I need it to be, and to find this out, I'd have to drive a total of five hours, so at this point, I'm thinking of just getting this requirement for marriage taken care of once I've landed for good in Brazil, as the consulate is just blocks from where I'll be living.

A couple of questions for this:

1) Is it possible to do both the Single Status Affidavit as well as Certificate of Non-Impediment of Marriage at a US Consulate? Our cartorio in Fortaleza requires both and states that "declaração/atestado consular" is possible on both accounts.

2) Is the document accepted by the cartorio "as is"-- with consular notary? No need for apostille, etc? I sense that it is accepted as is, but after getting ALL THE THINGS apostilled I want to be extra sure.

Experiences regarding this transaction would be appreciated!

Many thanks and my best to all!

He was probably mad about essence of coconut shells.....and hungry, he rode his motorcycle over, and it is a good thing the lady answered the door for I would have given him a good French lesson in Americano English and waited for the Noa Entendi and then went for the jugular of " fumor moa. gracious adeus, desculpe amigo, manha talvez vento differente talvez Senior Pai vento Norte. And that is my Good neighbor policy....

Maybe I should build the good neighbor fence or a door so he can enter and have a piece of Goat...lol..kkk

So One Day I am in Dallas at a seminar and the Opening Speaker says "Welcome to Republic of Texas' and I was like 'Yup"......lol....it was flipn cold I think it was in 28-32 degrees. I even had my fur coat, so on Cowboy Night Festa i went as a Buffalo Soldier...true story.. Never go Anywhere with out a Coat....even Las Vegas.....

Alaska was the Last Frontier. Now Brasil is...smdh
