Which Copy???

Good evening Members, 

Haven't been on here for a while and we are getting ready to start the process for my wife's parents. Our question is regarding the Birth Certificate. In Dominican Republic they have two versions believe it or not the long form (Acta Inextensa) and the short from (Extract). On the I130 it simply states the following: Just to confirm that we can simply send in the Extract which only shows the names of the parents along with their Identification number. Thanks in advance

• mother lives outside the United States,	Form I-130 A copy of your birth certificate showing your name and your mother’s name A copy of your Certificate of Naturalization or U.S. passport if you were not born in the United States
  father lives outside the United States,	Form I-130 A copy of your birth certificate showing your name and the names of both parents A copy of your Certificate of Naturalization or Citizenship or U.S. passport if you were not born in the United States A copy of your parents’ civil marriage certificate

I would believe the Extract should be ok as long as it has both your wife's name AND her father's / mother’s name on it too.
