I130 "BIRTH NOT TIMELY REGISTERED AND DNA TESTING"

[TheBoss 1]

Hi,  anybody has any idea what to do If someone receive the following type of letter  REQUEST FOR EVIDENCE from USCIS. One of my friend got this once he applied for his parent's I130. SPECIALLY the 2nd Part (Underlined and Italic from) I did not understand what to advice him.

 

Thanks

 

In support of the claimed relationship, you submitted a copy of your birth document which does not reflect a date of registration that is contemporaneous with the birth. The registration occurred 43 years after your birth. As such, additional information and evidence are required regarding your birth to establish the claimed biological relationship with the beneficiary. 

 

Secondary Evidence

Provide secondary evidence of your birth. Evidence that was created contemporaneously with the birth will be deemed the most persuasive for establishing the claimed biological relationship. This evidence may include, but is not limited to:

• Governmental, medical, religious, school, financial, employment, insurance or residential records that reflect the names of you and the beneficiary;
• Family photographs with notations indicating the persons photographed, as well as the date and place they were taken; and
• Correspondence, preferably with the original envelopes, showing the dates written and referring to you and the beneficiary.

 

In addition to the secondary evidence, provide the following evidence regarding the submitted birth document:

• If there were any personal, societal or historical circumstances that prevented the birth from being contemporaneously registered, provide credible and probative evidence to corroborate those circumstances.
• If evidence of the claimed biological relationship had been independently corroborated by the civil authorities prior to their issuance of the birth document, provide credible and probative evidence of that corroboration.
• If the civil authorities required corroborative evidence of the claimed biological relationship, submit copies of such evidence.

Quite common. Here’s a recent one. The kind of secondary evidence available often depends on country and community of origin.
The underlined bit you have - for example the first point could be some kind of proof that it wasn’t common to issue birth certificates (or long form birth certificates) at the time of birth, civil conflict preventing issuance of records at that time, remote rural village without access to government offices, etc. Whatever was the actual reason for them not having it.
