Birth Certificate Issue

[Susita 175]

Hello everyone, I'm hoping somebody can help me with this

My fiancee is from Peru, we are about to receive our NOA2 very soon - I just responded to an RFE which was simple and am expecting the NOA2 any day now.

Here's my problem: His second last name on his birth certificate is spelled wrong. In April, when we filed for the Visa, he also went to the "city hall" / municipalidad, and asked for a copy of his birth certificate. There he realized the problem. He filled out some forms to have it corrected. It's been almost 5 months and they keep telling him to call and come back in 2 weeks, 1 week, bla bla bla. The situation is that things like this move VERY SLOWLY in Peru. I'm scared we wont have it for the interview.

Can he show them that he's correcting his birth certificate? Give them his baptism certificate and his ID card from Peru? He has the incorrect copy of the birth certificate to show them as well.

I am super nervous. I don't want this to hold up the visa or get it denied? Anyone have the same / similar problem or not have a birth certificate at all????

Do not worry at all he can show that is in the process and show his baptism certificate and also get an affidavit of 2 people that were present on his birth, it says it in the instructions on what to do when u dont have certain documents with u, read it for the I 129 F..

Or Worst comes to worst u ll get a yellow slip that the approval will be on hold until u get the rest of the papers u need!

thats what happened to me, Santiago was missing a certificado de antecedentes policiales from mexico and they gave us that yellow slip and had to go back with the document and next day approved...

their major issue is that he doesnt have any antecedentes penales, that u guys have enough proof of ur ongoing relationship and that he doesnt have AIDS lol

so dont worry much!

has he gotten his stuff for when he is interviewed?

Antecedentes penales policiales y judiciales yet?

he needs to start with that so u guys are not doing it LAST minute

Hola Suzy

The only thing i can say tell you is that the best is to fix his birth of certificate. After he gets here it will get even more critical. you need it at least for the SSN and AOS....

i hope this does not complicate the process... and yes... i know how slow are things in Peru when it is related to paperwork...... maybe if he sends mails to the news papers or call radioprogramas.... i am pretty sure it will expedite things A LOT!!!!!!

good luck!

it does..... many newspapers like peru 21 have sections where people send mails with their cases... short ones.... it does help, they get a response almost inmediately. and radioprogramas also have hours when you can call.

your suggestion is completly valid, it will work for the interview, but what are they going to do once they got married????? do the SSA accepts letters saying he is who he says he is???? how are they going to file AOS????? i am just trying to look a little bit forward.

bye

yeah i hear ya, however it wont take forever, the Reniec nowadays its a lil faster, if he goes and calls constantly and pushes for it he will get his BC.

She is panicking a little bit for the interview but im sure by the time he gets here and they need all of that it ll be in his hands,

from my lips to gods ears,

Hang in there suzy dont panic yet

gracias... estoy un poco mas tranquila ahora, jaja

Thanks Farrah

I think it will be ok. Both of his parents can write a letter and have it notarized for him, just in case we dont have the birth cert.

He hasn't started with the police documents yet, when I get NOA2 I will have him do that. He's going crazy about la partida de nacimiento, so I don't want to make him even more crazy yet.
