Ok VJ's.. so I have a friend that is going through this process. So he received an RFE from NVC stating that they need the translated copies of the marriage certificate and of her birth certificate and a passport pic. I trully do not think that he is telling me everything. However I am interested to know if anyone has any words to share on this.

Thanks in advance..

Eso es lo que yo no entiendo.. I know that he initally sent in the translations because i saw them myself. He also mentioned that they needed a copy of her passport? which leads me to beleive that he failed to mail that in initially. But i guess we will see how this turns out..

Well it was not a requirement for him to mail a copy of her passport to uscis with the I-130. This is only a requirement when sending the DS-230 to NVC. Like I said before, you can translate if you want to be super safe, but I along with others did not and we had no issues. The NVC website says the documents should be in English or the official language of the country where the interview will take place.
