Hey guys, I hadn't realized until today that I need to upload a birth certificate on CEAC website. I happen to have one that was issued on March 2018. Do you think I could use that one, or should I get a more recent one?

Thank you for your thoughts!

In Brazil a birth certificate gets updated according to a person's life. Say if you get married, or divorced, it shows up on your certificate. Mine was issued before I got married, so that doesn't show up in it. It's not that simple

Straight from the state dept see the underlined.
https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country/Brazil.html

Birth Certificates

Available: In all 26 states and the Federal District of Brasilia.

Fees: There are no fees for the first original.  For additional copies, variable fees apply.

Document Name: Birth Certificate (Certidão de Nascimento)

Issuing Authority: Civil Registry (Cartório de Registro Civil das Pessoas Naturais).

Special Seal(s) / Color / Format: Certificates vary in form depending on the state where it was issued. There are standard and unabridged versions of birth certificates.  Both are acceptable. The extended versions (Certidão de Inteiro Teor and Certidão de Pública Forma) contain the same basic information required in the simplified version as well as more detailed information about the birth and a history of any amendments.  Birth certificates may include annotations regarding adoptions or the acquisition of social-affective parents (see comments below). 

Issuing Authority Personnel Title: There is no issuing authority personnel title.

Registration Criteria: Variable

Procedure for Obtaining: Available from Civil Registry (Cartório de Registro Civil das Pessoas Naturais). Until recently it was necessary to visit a civil registry office in person or by sending a personal representative in the state where the record is maintained in order to obtain a copy of the document.  Now some cartórios may be able to obtain records from other states, although this is not consistent for all documents and for all states in Brazil.    

In cases where people have married, divorced, and etc.:  to obtain an annotated birth certificate, a person needs to go to a notary (cartório) and request an updated copy of his/her birth certificate.  However, the lack of an annotation on the birth certificate does not necessarily mean that the person’s personal status has not changed.   Usually, a recently issued birth certificate includes all the amendments and/or annotations of that person’s life events (marriage, divorce, and etc.). That said, in cases where birth certificates lack annotations and/or amendments and have not been updated do not necessarily mean that a particular life event has not occurred.  

Certified Copies Available: Certified copies are available

Alternate Documents: Unabridged birth certificates are available (Certidão de Inteiro Teor). Annotated certificates are also available.

Exceptions: None

Comments:  For examples of Brazilian civil documents click here.

Since November 21, 2017, it has been possible to register social-affective parenthood (paternidade ou maternidade socio-afetiva) in the civil register.  Any adult, other than a biological grand-parent or sibling, who is over 18 years old and more than 16 years older than the child, may voluntarily register as a mother or father on the basis of having a parent-child relationship based upon “social affection.”  It is possible for a child to be registered with the names of up to four parents (two mothers and two fathers).  As such, a child may be registered under the name of his/her step-parents, or biological parents, or adoptive parents or under the name of an adult who has declared a bond of social-affective parenthood; any combination of these parents’ names may be used on the certificate.   These parents all share identical parental rights, responsibilities, and privileges under Brazilian law, regardless of the basis of the parentage claim.

Because of the new law, it is not possible to determine from standard birth certificates issued after November 21, 2017 whether the listed parents are the biological parents, adoptive parents, or other social-affective parents.  To determine this relationship it is necessary to obtain a complete unabridged record (certidao de inteiro teor).  This may be obtained from the civil registry office (cartório) where the birth is registered.

Thank you. I suppose that means I do have to get an updated one then.

Unless I’ve lost my mind...it seems that the one you have is fine. Even though other things occurred to add to the certificate, your birth still doesn’t change and that’s what they want to see.

If you want to see it that way, but it doesn't mean that way. It means that they can accept any birth certificate as long as it's a valid birth certificate. You're still going to upload marriage and divorce stuff if you got them separately. It won't come from a birth certificate. 

So if you want to get an updated go forth. If you want to save time. Use your birth certificate without the annotations.

Hello,

 

I had my final document approved after appealing via a Senator. They were asking for 2018 tax returns, and my sponsor has his own accountancy firm, so he filled extensions for his wife (my in-laws). The NVC said they still wanted to see the 2018 tax return, but we pointed them towards the letter from his firm (uploaded in August) that states extensions have been filed.

 

So they approved that letter...and then said they want proof of employment from my sponsor, his wife and my wife.

 

Our lawyer thinks there is a chance that even if we get approval that when we have our consulate interview that they will reject me because I have not presented the 2018 taxes. You can not being new documents to the consulate interview too.

 

Has anyone else heard of people being rejected at interview stage for this reason? 

 

Any insight would be much appreciated
