Big Error on Long Form Birth Certificate

[tommysgirl 0]

For reasons too long to explain, my mother's maiden name is not on my birth certificate. I phone the "im"famous Ontario Registrar Gereals office and they informed me it can be ammended when I fill out the package they will send me.

The bad news is it usually takes 16 weeks.

The said if I can show a letter from immigration it can be speeded up.

I E-mailed montreal about a month ago about this and never heard from them. Probably because my file hasn't reached them yet. (I'm still waiting for NOA 2)

They also said if I can find any kind of K3 filing instructions where it states long form birth cert. with names of both parents needed it could speed things up.

I searched USCIS web site - but no luck

Does anyone know where I can find anything written stating this so I can print it out and send it to them.

Thanks for any help

thanks Germangel

Your info led me to look at the ottawa embassy page. Didin't find any thing there but it led to other pages.

Can't believe I found it in the most obvious place - the NVC web page. It lists everything in detail.

Sometimes it seems more complicated than it is.

THanks for looking and replying.
