ROC daughter birth certificate lost ! HELP

[Ay Pe 94]

Hi guys I have a real doubt here, I came here as a K1 in 2018 got married in 2018 and did the AOS successfully in May 2019. In May 2021 my green card is about to expire and I am about to file for the ROC, however in 2018 i was pregnant and in October my daughter was born, during the AOS process we sent USCIS a copy of her birth certificate and during our interview my husband and I we think that the officer asked us if they could keep the birth certificate copy we had and we said yes. After a few months we started looking for her birth certificate and we couldn't find it anywhere so we are not sure what happened to it. And I was not worried about it until now, i always thought that I could just go at the clerk's office and request a new copy very simple but the case is that I just learned that since March 2020 they are not accepting a walk in request and everything has to be done online, so I ordered a new copy and this efing paper is going to take 3-4 weeks to arrive and also before they process I need to print a document and FAX this efing document to them, who the hell has a FAX now days. 

 

So my question is that due to my history since I know they do have my daughter birth certificate attached to my whole process at USCIS can I just pretend I forgot to add her birth certificate or I should wait until I have the documents to file for the ROC ? 

 

Thank you all who took your time to read just giant text and help me out. Really appreciate ☺️

as long as it will still be within your allowable period for filing for ROC I would wait.

 

I had to get another copy of my sons for some reason (i forget why now) last summer and they said it would take 4-6 weeks. I had it within a week. so, you may get it much faster than what you think you might.

Don't you have other documents to use as proof for ROzc purposes apart from your daughter's BC?
