  • Non availability of birth certificate

    All Immigration gurus:
    Firstly thank you for all the advice and suggestions on these forums. It has helped me thru my immigration journey a lot till now that I have hit a roadblock and need your expert advice.

    I have applied for a family based green card for my parents (parents of a US Citizen)

    We have been able to get all the documents required except for the birth certificate for my parents.
    The problem with my dad's birth record is that it has some other name on the record which was kept by the local village chowkidaar at that time in urdu.

    My father's name will be different as per that record. Is their a way to rectify this? If I were to submit that birth certificate ..what else would I need as supporting documents?

    Has anyone else gone thru this ..want to get it right for my parents. Thank you for all your help and suggestions in advance.

    Regards

    This is something I read recently on one of the forums.

    In the case of parents' birth certificate it may be OK to get affidavits from someone older than your parent and who knows him (like an elderly relative). It was also suggested that "Non-availability Certificate' is also not required.

    On the other hand since you have indicated that someone does have the record, can they issue a certificate without mentioning a name Ex: baby boy but stating all other pertinent information like, place, date, name of the mother, name of the father?

        Raju Thank you for your reply. It will be great if you could point me to that discussion. we have tried to get a certificate without a name issued but the govt. body involved would not issue it without the name.

          Please be more clear about the existing birth record for your dad;

          1. Is it issued by the local municipality where your dad was born?
          2. It does not matter if it is in urdu.
          When translated,
          what fields are correctly written?
          and what fields are omitted and what fields have errors and what errors?

          1. date of birth
          2.sex
          3.name of child
          4date of registration
