Sending new evidence for filed petition

[lfl 4]

Hi everyone! I filed my documents for ROC already in November, no updates after biometrics, with the original petition, I was 2 months pregnant and sent an ultrasound. Now our baby was born and I'm wondering if it's possible and good to send in the birth certificate to USCIS? If so, how do you send it to USCIS? Case is in Vermont processing center.

Why not just wait for possible RFE and send it then? If you don’t get an RFE, then great. But if you do get an RFE, don’t you think it would be strong supplemental evidence to send in a birth certificate as a response to it? Instead of sending it in now and having it possibly being misplaced while rerouted and filed etc?

You don’t need to send anything. If they issue an RFE for that, you can send it then. If they call you for an interview, you can bring the BC with you. 

 

Btw, as many people on this forum have pointed out, having a baby is part of the evidence, but it’s not an ultimate trump card win-it-all kind of deal. Having a baby just means that you had sexual intercourse, it doesn’t speak volume to your relationship. Proving a bona fide relationship between two people is what they’re after,  not proof that sexual intercourse has occurred between two people.

I know, we dated for 7 years before marriage and had a lot of Co-mingling evidence in the package so most likely not even necessary, just wondering if it needed to be sent ahead of time since I'm getting the birth certificate in two weeks.. I'll wait to see if there's RFE then.

No, you do not need to send anything, if you have lots of evidence about financial Co-mingling, you will be fine.  If you get RFE or calls for an interview ( rarely), you might take it with other latest documents.  It is a misconception that having a baby together without lot of financial co-mingling will make your case stronger.    You need to add it during N-400 application.
