foreign birth certificate question

[anks329 1]

We're in the process of getting our paperwork together to file for an AOS (from an F-1 visa), and one of things we need is the foreign birth certificate. The birth certificate doesn't have a name on it. Do you think the attached affidavit would be enough to send along with the birth certificate?

I think that should be just fine. I had the same issue, my BC did not have a name on it either (or it only said "Baby girl_Lastname") because in Finland parents don't officially name their babies until in the baptism ceremony, which can be a month after birth. I didn't have any issues. My BC had my birth date, my parent's names, location, name of the midwife, my gender, etc. and then in addition I got an extract from our population registry that had all that same info, and my name.

I think the document you have there will probably be just fine.

Perfect, thanks. We're getting two people (not parents) to complete it. And the birth certificate has everything else on it.

Thanks!
