Do you bring your childrens original birth certificates to Visa Interview?

[OrihimeandIchigo 216]

Hello all im hoping you could help me. I'm very confused about this part in the Pre Interview Checklist. It says to bring Original or certified copies of birth certificates for all children of the principal applicant (even if he or she is not accompanying). Is this for people who are filing for multiple applicants and their children? Or just in general even if the interview and application is just for ONE person?

It is in general.

Interesting.  I didn't bring my child's birth certificate.  She wasn't immigrating.

It is a requirement for some consulates (like Auckland).

Hello!
Your post was from a while ago but was the applicant's kid's birth certificate required at the embassy? Did you/your spouse bring it? Thanks!
