It's sad your lawyer didn't catch that. Has it been up to 2 weeks yet? If it has don't just wait on your lawyer, if you can call, try calling until you get answers, even if it takes you speaking to someone of higher level.

This is just another reason why using a lawyer will usually screw up your case.

I would suggest mailing both the original marriage certificate and original birth certificate to NVC with a simple cover letter stating what you are sending in response to the RFE.

if you are sure you sent original/certified and they are mistaken, you can ask like us to have it checked by supervisor,

will take about 7-10 days

but is not a waste (at least wasn't for us)

operator can see problems in the records before checklist is sent

operator does not eventually read all to you he eventually stops after first or second problem

I would call operator to reaffirm you have sent all ok

just ask the operator to have it checked by supervisor

or just be a pain and sure about what you sent and she/he will do it automatically

in our case, they told us that marriage certficate not original / certified

we heard about it as checklist on AVR but did not wait for checklist email

I call operator to understand the problem

she told us only one problem and not the other about tax retruns

I told operator I was sure that certificate was good, she said that the only thing she could do is send to supervisor) and so she did

we also sent email with comments scans to nvc without waiting for checklist

"this email is to confirm that we did send certified marriage certificate" blabla..

Later came the checklist mentioning the problem, but operator confirmed then that problem closed and we did not need to resend

just answer about another pending point

did lawyer receive checklist email? he could forward if so.

or is checklist still not sent by NVC like in our case when we first heard about it on AVR

Make sure the Marriage certificate is not only notarized by the appropriate registrar, but also have it attested by the ministry of foreign affairs, thats what my husband had done because that makes it like the most possible certified I guess. We had no problems with our marriage certificate. I'm not sure what you sent in for the translation, but again, get everything attested by ministry of foreign affairs. Good luck...

re reading your post

maybe your lawyer did what I suggested to you

asked for supervisor to check

and wait for its checking

this is for certificates

about pcc, maybe they did put a miss while not having finished to compile

if operator did not mention, I would not make any conclusion if you did not ask "? other issues?"
