Hello Vjers:

My husband and I have an interview on April 15. The interview letter states that the petitioner which is me has to bring in their birth certificate and government issued ID. I have misplaced my

birth certificate and do not have a government ID. Will I have any problem entering the building without a government ID? I also use my United States passport as

proof of my US citizenship and proof of birth. Is my passport better than a government ID? Does my husband have to get a government ID too? Is it a must that

the petitioner attend the interview with the beneficiary? All the people who have attending the AOS interview please give us advice. I would really appreciate your tips and information.

Thank you so much......

As far as I am aware.. a passport is a form of government-issued ID..at least that is true of Australian passports. So that's fine although I'm not sure what will happen since you don't have your birth certificate. I'm also pretty sure that your husband doesn't need to get any other ID - his passport should be fine to use also.

I am not doing AOS - but if your interview letter states that you (the petitioner) needs to be there...then you need to be there. Even if they are not required (ie..in cases where the beneficiary is going through consular processing) it is usually recommended for the petitioner to be there.

Good luck with your interview!!! :thumbs:

For AOS if there is an interview they expect both parties to attend. They are going to look at your evidence and possibly interview you both separately to further ensure that your marriage is valid. A government ID is any ID issued by a government agency. This includes passports, drivers licenses, state issued ID cards. It does not include school ID's or work ID's. You should be able to get your birth certificate if you order an expedited copy, assuming you were born in the US.

This will not be over quickly. You will not enjoy this.

If you are a naturalized citizen they may want to see your naturalization certificate. Did you submit it as part of the k1 package ? Did you submit your birth certificate then ? IF not then they may want either of those. If they specifically ask for something then you need to bring it , if it is just listed in things that you need to enter then don't worry if you only have one item on the list.

This will not be over quickly. You will not enjoy this.
