I read somwhere on one of the Canadian threads that they ask for a "long" birth certificate.... what does this mean??? I carry with me my NB birth certificate (wallet size and plastified). It is my original one. Will this not do? If it won't do, can someone tell me where I am suppose to go to get what I need. I'll be sending out my K-129 on July 1st when I get down to the US to visit my fiance and want to get as many things done ahead of time as possible.

Thanks for your help, this site is so great!!!

The BC they want will have your parents names on it. Its a form basically that you fill in when you apply for a birth certificate. It has your mom and dads name on it and their place of birth along with other info. If you dont have that you need to get a certified copy from your province. It should be easy to google. New Brunswick birth certificate or whatever.

Hey there... I went online and applied for mine, and it was at my door in 3 days! Google your province and birth certificates- see if you can apply online. Hint: I needed specific details my weight at birth my parents address at the time of birth - things I did'nt know off hand.... anyway good luck. :thumbs:

This shoes you links to the different provinces with info about Canadian Birth Certificates

What shoes?? Who is buying shoes?? :D:D

Edited by flames9

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1
