Hello All,

I hope all is well! I was hoping that my case would be complete by end of this week at NVC! But I got an RFE.

My wife did not have an Original Birth Certificate so as per NVC we had Affidavits of Support in Lieu of Birth Certificates prepared by her Parents/Uncle/Grandfather (3 of them). They di dnot mention to me that I need a letter from the local authorities for not having one.

They say they also need a letter from local county/govt. as to why she does not have an original Birth Certificate. I wish they told me when I called them weeks and months back. I wrote back to them but if they stick to this formality, I am back to delays for a few weeks! What a roller coaster of a JOURNEY!

Anyone else in this situaiton, any feedback, suggestions.......THANKS IN ADVANCE - PANKI

Thanks.....One would think that a highly paid immigration attorney would have told me that but now I truly believe that these lawyers are absolutely worthless because these are the things that they should be advising the clients on!!!

Anyways, thanks for your feedback, much appreciated! Panki!
