Hi there, does anyone know whether you need to include a copy of the former marriage certificate in addition to the decree absolute to show the previous marriage was dissolved in the I-129F? 

 

Also, do you know if it matters if the documents are scanned and not perfectly straight or centred?

You don't need a copy of the marriage certificate.  Only a copy of the divorce/annulment document is required.

 

As long as it legible, you should be ok.  You will take the originals to the interview, just in case they ask for them.

There is a requirement to show the documentation for name changes. Prior marriage certificates could be that, if the name had changed; as often the marriage and the name change are on the same certificate.

 

If the name did not change, then only divorce certificate(s) are required.

I was wondering the same thing due to the email from the Singapore embassy and their required do I... I may be reading it wrong but it seems to say that both applicant and petitioner are to supply copy of marriage certificate(s) and court certified copies of divorce decree, annulment or death certificate... I may be reading it wrong?
