Ok this has been probably asked hundreds of times but i will just commit a crime of asking it one more time. I am naturalized US citizen applying for my spouse by filing I-130. Do I have to send my (petitioner) birth certificate and my spouse's (beneficiary's) birth certificate. Or sending in copy of US passport of naturalized US citizen and sending in copy of naturalization certificate sufficient?

Instructions for I-130 give IF...THEN scenarios for which I don't have to send petitioner's and beneficiary's birth certificate, but I just had to ask for my peace of mind! Sorry for any inconvinience caused.....

I am naturalized citizen too and my certificate of naturalization is lost so I sent only copy of my passport and was ok, this was back in July now some requirements might be changed you better double check in I-130 form instructions.

you can send in the copy of your INS certificate OR a copy of all pages from your passport. You don't need to send in the birth certificate.

And your spouse's birth certificate with translation to English is needed.

No, the spouse birth certificate is not required when filing I-130. It is only required when submitting documents to NVC(DS-230?).
