hi guys, 

had my biometrics appointment on the 5th of December, everything went well. 

today got an RFE in the mailbox asking for the birth certificate english translation- I sent it already with the entire AOS folder . So , I am wondering now what should i send them back :

1. the notary certified translation of my Romanian birth certificate , Romanian to english translation , translated in Romania by a certified translator, has all the notary and translator stamps. this is the same i initially sent , did they loose it?

or 

2. should i translate again my birth certificate here, in US, maybe they want it translated by a translator here?

That's sad to hear you got an rfe. Yes, probably send another translate BC again if they are asking for it. Unfortunately that is a common thing for rfe...some of the officers are lazy i think :/

We also received an RFIE for a 'missing' translated birth certificate, which I know we submitted in the original petition.

 

We just sent the exact same translation again (luckily we had 2 certified copies) and it's been 2 months since they received it, no additional RFIEs sent or any updates heard for that matter. 

If you are going through the visa process and will be interviewing in Casablanca, Morocco, join us over at the
