Please, during the CR1 interview in Lagos, Nigeria, is it OK/accepted to present a certified copy made from the photocopy of the original Certificate?

Hello ,

At the time of the interview you must bring the original +a copy of everything submitted at NVC

The original is with my wife in the US, but we got a certified copy with the raised seal, and stamps from AMAC and the Ministry of Foreign affairs. Is that good enough?

@dwheels76 Do you know if the certified copy is sufficient?

Hi , 

i don’t want to give you a wrong answer .

best way is to contact NVC and ask them to be sure .

because on their website the insist on the  “original “

My brother tell your wife to send it together with all the original documents she sent to NVC to you through DHL because you will need all the original documents both of you submitted to NVC during your interview

I agree, I had to send my husband all of the originals; plus the photo copies of everything that I submitted to the NVC. It took about a week and I wished we knew all of this last year. 

 

But thanks to the VJ family,  we have learned a lot.

No, I didn't  make a mistake last  year. We have seemed to be blessed by God.  

 

Reading what our VJ family has wrote here has helped us tremendously.

It also says a certified copy is okay. 

Maybe we should email the embassy to be sure.
