Is Petitioner's ORIGINAL Birth Certificate required

[Gigli2008 70]

Again, I may have missed this, but do I need to send to my husband my Original Birth Certificate to take to a K3 interview?

Thanks,

US citizen's BS is only needed to be attached to form I-129F to prove US Citizenship, it is not needed at the interview.

maybe, instructions contained in the information packet fronm the consulate will indicate exactly, but it is not typical

I dont think its a requirement for your interview just to be sure bring copy in case they will ask for it.

GOODLUCK!

I see them requiring originals of everything but nothing was mentioned about Petitioners Birth Certificate. I was born in Kenya. Of course I sent a copy of my Naturalization Certificate (which I am not willing to part with) and I sent a copy of my Birth Certificate. But I am trying to avoid him being sent back to get my originals. I am sure a few people have already gone through the K3 interviews. I realize that this may be Embassy specific. I will also post in the Regional Forum.

Thanks,

It is not an issue of a K-3 interview... It is all about being Consualte specific

I had to send my birth certificate, But was unable to get original on time for interview! So I had a copy notarized and it was aceppted! My husband has his visa! Send him with all the information you can!

Go with more rather than less to prove your marriage! good luck everything will be great! god bless!
