USC spouse's birth certificate

[wifey246 0]

Our interview is coming up in a few weeks. My USC husband, who was born in an Asian country, doesn't have a birth certificate. It is listed as one of the requirements in the AOS interview notice. Is this a big problem as far as USCIS is concerned?

What can we present in place of the birth certificate?

Please help..

Can't he order a copy?

Below, is part of some information I copied from the State Department website.

I also was born abroad (My father was a US citizen stationed in the Panama Canal Zone during his military service)....I had to order a new birth certificate since my other one was misplaced.

Do a search on the internet. There are many places where you can order birth certificates.

If you want to read the rest of the information from the State Department, the website was...

a passport or something proving he is the US citizen.

I know a couple, who has been waiting for the positive response for 8 years,

they keep denying them because they cannot prove

he's American - no birth cart, no passport.

Good luck!

Did you get the RFE when you sent the papaers?

They didn't ask for neither of our certificates at the interview but we have already submitted the copies with our application.

Hope it helps and good luck!

When we had our interview, the officer did not look at my (US citizen)'s birth certificate since my citizenship is through naturalization even though I had my birth certificate with me. I don't think it should matter if you are a naturalized citizen but if you are a citizen by birth then that will be a problem....

Good luck!

wifey: I am also from Asia (India) and don't have a birth certificate - I am the USC - I just took my passport and the naturalization certificate with me (I had submitted copies of Naturalization certificate in lieu of date of birth with the AOS.) Didn't have any problems. Good Luck
