Hello! Ok, my husband's birth certificate is not valid as in registered. What does he need to do? Any ideas on how he goes about obtaining a cetified copy? Please reply asap! We need it soon and the locals are telling him they can not help him!

Check the Consulate website. There's other docs that you can submit instead of the birth cert... Let me look it and see if I can find anything...

Vipul submitted school certificates (I think that's what they are called - like I think they give before you go on to the next grade) because his name was not on his birth certificate. He didn't have any problems after that.

Edited to say: That was India - not sure about what Pakistan does

Birth Certificates

Available. Reporting of births is voluntary, and records are not uniformly kept, particularly in rural areas. Almost all records of vital statistics of the Karachi Municipality were burned in 1948. Where a record of birth exists, a certificate to that effect may be obtained from the Registrar of Births and Deaths or the Director of Health Services in the municipality or, in rural areas, from the union council, district council or district health officer. Caution should be used, however, in accepting such certificates, since they frequently do not match the original ledgers. Births also may be registered late. In lieu of a birth certificate, Pakistanis often use school records attested by the headmaster or principal of the school or matriculation certificates, both of which identify the father and the date of birth.
