Hi

My interview is on Monday and I just realized that they require a long form birth certificate. I feel really stupid that I never caught this before and now I'm stressed out about what they will say when all I have is the short form birth certificate. Will they need to rebook my interview? please help :(

Most likely you'll go to the interview, and then they'll place your case on hold pending submission of documents. Once you send them the document, they'll make a decision. You'll not need to go for another interview. Think of it as an RFE from the interview.

K-1 Visa Process.

The long form birth certificate must give the full names and places of birth of both your birth parents.
