Birth and Marriage certificate

[ssma2007 0]

New user to VJ. Thanks for the valuable information this site has.

I have couple of questions:

1. My fiancee has a birth certificate from the hospital not from the local muncipal. The birth certificate does not have her name (this is the way it is it India, child is not named immediately), only her Parents name. What else will be required?

2. She is a divorcee. She has a divorce certificate but not a marriage cert. And it may not be possible to get one now. Is there anything else she can do?

Regards.

I think she would need to get a certified birth certificate in that case.

I had my divorce decree only. It was cool.

ssma2007,

A birth certificate issued by the local municipal, or whatever level of government issues birth certificates.

If a government-issued birth certificate is absolutely not possible, then alternate documentation may do - search the USCIS or DoS web sites for the guidelines for what may be acceptable alternates. Might be in the VJ Guides or Visa FAQ somewhere also.

1)

BIRTH CERTIFICATE: Original and photocopy. Each applicant must submit an original and a clear photocopy of his/her birth certificate. The certificate should include the applicant's name, date and place of birth, the names of both parents, and the seal of the issuing office, i.e. the municipal authorities. If your name is not mentioned in the birth certificate and if any details are missing in the birth certificate or if there is a discrepancy regarding your date of birth or name, submit the certificate along with secondary evidence.

Secondary evidence can be a baptismal certificate, an adoption decree, a school record, a notarized affidavit from a close relative, a neighbor or friend who was present at the time of your birth on the appropriate stamp paper, which must be sworn before a First Class Magistrate. The person making this affidavit must state how he/she knows your family and how he/she knows the facts of your birth. Secondary evidence must have your name, date and place of birth; names of both parents; and the seal of the issuing office.

If your birth was not recorded, please submit a "no record of birth registration" letter from the relevant municipality along with secondary evidence and if your birth record has been destroyed or the municipality authorities will not issue one, submit a letter from the municipality stating so along with secondary evidence. (See preceding paragraph for definition of "secondary evidence.

TERMINATION OF PREVIOUS MARRIAGE: All applicants who have divorced or whose spouses have died must provide an original and a clear photocopy of proof of the legal termination of all previous marriages (death certificate of spouse, divorce decree). Divorce between Hindus and Christians must be documented by a court order. A certificate from the Kazi or the head of the Jammat must document divorce between Muslims. If any of these documents were issued in a local language, a notarized English translation is required in addition to the original.
