We were married in the Philippines. Im in the process of filing the I-130 petition and pertaining to the marriage certificate, does anyone know if I can file the petition with a copy from the civil registar or do I need a copy from the NSO office?

Thanks,

Tony

We used a certified copy from the Local Civil Registry to file the I-130. You will need several NSO copies later such as for the interview.

I can confirm that the Civil Registry's copy is sufficient for I-130 petition. We had several "Certified True Copies" made before I returned and used one of them.

I didnt take any chances and used the official copies from the NSO office. You dont have to have the original copies to file for the I-130 but you are required to have it jsut in case USCIS wants to see the original.
