And I don't think any of my agencies verified my degree either, although I suppose my previous work experience as a teacher confirmed it in a sideways kind of way?

That said, I don't think it's an unreasonable request, but I'm not entirely sure how you'd go about proving it. A notarized letter from my college stating I graduated with xyz degree takes 7-10 days to arrive and costs $15+ (it's been a while since I had to order one), so I guess if the family were comfortable waiting/paying I'd do that. As for my degree itself, it's absolutely massive and buried in a box somewhere in my parents' attic.

+1 Wouldn't have a problem showing proof as I don't see the issue but wouldnt know how.

If you can't figure that out, the degree wasn't worth much
