original birth certificate

[wolverine 0]

Hello all,

My fiancee is awaiting Packet 4 for her interview date. Everything seems ready to go except in regards to her birth certificate. She is a Canadian citizen (w/ Canadian passport) but was born in Pakistan. Seems that she only has a copy of her original birth certificate and not the actual original. I am guessing such a photocopy will not be acceptable?

Is there a process by which we can get that photocopy notarized or something that would be acceptable for the US Consulate? Any suggestions would be helpful? Thanks much

She needs a real birth certificate, and no, nobody is going to certify a copy. She might want to try the Canadian consulate.
