AOS birth certificate?

[Mel and Rudy 2]

When I went to the interview for the K-1 visa, I had to produce a birth certificate for the grant of the K-1 visa.

The instructions were that if there were any discrepancies in the birth certificate, we had to submit a sworn affidavit from a close relative vouching for all the details along with the BC which I did and my visa was granted.

Applying for AOS now and I'd like to know if it will suffice to just submit the same sworn affidavit in original along with the birth certificate?

My BC only has my given name and even that is misspelt.

I was born in India and it is next to impossible to get official documents corrected in a short amount of time and attempting to get one might prove very costly in terms of time and money if not futile.

What can I do?!

Try it but have everything translated in english (certified by the translator) if it's in another language.

Submit the same thing you did for K-1 visa.

Both the BC and the affidavit are in English.

It's really confusing when the consulate accepts from evidence and issues you a visa but the same evidence is not accepted by Homeland Security.

They really need to coordinate with each other so they know what is required instead of making people run around.

I wanted to know if they issued an RFE would they still approve my Advance Parole application?

Cause in that case I could go back and fetch the document myself. It would be really difficult to get it done sitting 8,000 miles away!
