Birth Cert

[StaceyG 0]

I sent away to Ontario for my long birth cert, and I got back not the long copy but instead a Certified Copy of my birth cert from the Ontario Government. My question is , IS this what I need for my interview, will they accept it as my long birth cert as it is certified and all that ??

No they will not, you need to have the long form with both of your parents listed on it.

You can go online and order this, its pretty simple, or call them and tell them that there was a mix up so you arent charged.

Its the long birth cert, it has both my parents on it, where they were born, where they lived when I was born, who the dr was and the hospital.., its just not an orginal its a province certified long birth cert on a province letter head. But it is my long birth cert

[Sprailenes 47]

That is it. You don't need anything else then.

I thought you meant you had your short form.

You know what happened to me? I lost mine and realized it a week before my interview so I went to Toronto to go to the place to try to get it right then and there, and I found out they don't actually give it to you right there anymore. So I went back to my fiances, because I was visiting him and ordered it online. It said 2-3 weeks for delivery and I was literally heart broken thinking this entire visa thing would take longer because I didn't have one document. Well it was delivered in 5 days 1 day before I left for Montreal, hows that for fate...TO AN AMERICAN address might I add.

I don't even believe in fate but something odd happened there for sure.

I think you'll be allowed to move much faster then that...Vancouver interviews seem to get scheduled way faster then Montreal. It wouldn't surprise me to see you have an interview mid-end of September!
