Birth Certificate

[zutukuza 0]

I need to know if Iraqi citizens have "birth certificates", got an rfe for one but we submitted ever other document Iraqi citizens use for Identification: Booklet, I.d card and passport.
So should we write a letter, got to an embassy here in the U.S or have to get it from the Iraq

What is the exact wording of the RFE letter? 
 

They don’t ask for any sort of birth certificate unless you’re choosing to include a copy of a US birth certificate to prove US citizenship. From the wording of your question (“Iraqi citizens”), I’m assuming you’re the beneficiary?

The Directorate then affirms that the subject-to-be-registered or confirmed registered was in fact born on "x" date. The General Directorate of Nationality uses that information to register the birth via a document called the "Family Book", which details the family tree of the immediate family.
