Moroccan birth certificate

[peavlerd6 0]

For the CR1 interview at Casablanca do you really need to have a new birth certificate if the one you turned in the beginning is more than 3 months old. I cannot fathom that a birth certificate would expire. I hate the fact that my husband would have to go to Errachida Morocco. Long long bus ride just to get a birth certificate that may not even be asked for during the interview.

A Birth Certificate never expires.

A Birth Certificate never expires.

In Morocco, the birth certificates have a three month validity period, that's why they're asking. I'd also like to know the answer from others who have gone through Morocco.

I would like to know from someone who just went through an interview. Because if they dont ask for it to me its a waste of travel time and money.

A birth certificate doesn't expire. It's the police report that expires every 3 months. Good luck!

The BC does expire after 3 months. One does not have to go to the city of birth anymore. They can go the Al Moqataa with their "new" National ID in the city that they live to obtain a new one.

He should have on hand a birth certificate for when he arrives in the U.S. as well. Although it may expire there, the U.S. won't have that stipulation, so he should bring one.

If you sent an original to USCIS or NVC the instructions for interview will say this document is not needed

if you sent only a copy, they will ask to see original at the interview

i just looked at Adil's birth certificate and it has no expiration date neither does the English tranlation / he started a family registration book for our family before he left Morocco / this has all births of family in it

Even our 2 police reports went to NVC and 1 expired after 3 months and case was there a year and they didn't ask for new ones
